Kia ora and welcome to episode three of the Vet Thrive Collective Podcast. In this episode, you'll hear from Dr. Francesca Brown, Head of Programmes & Associate Professor, Allied Veterinary Professional Education at Otago Polytechnic.
Francesca is an integral part of the Vet Thrive Program story after Megan volunteered to participate in a workplace design survey. The survey looked at what was going on in her practice and what could be done better.
The survey planted the seed for creating a health and wellness focus in Megan's practice. After seeing the change in her own staff, Megan quickly saw the potential for an accessible program for the industry. The Vet Thrive Program was born out of this idea.
During their discussion, Megan and Francesca discuss:
- How wellbeing practices lead to a sustainable workforce
- How to utilize all of your staff to create a better team
- Why a multifaceted approach to workplace culture is needed.
And more!
