Six episodes designed to help vets build an innovative mindset
ViVet, the RCVS' innovation programme for veterinary professionals, has released a new series of podcasts providing advice on applying an innovative mindset and entrepreneurial skills to everyday practice.
The six podcasts are hosted by Harvey Wade of innovation consultancy Innovate21. His work involves helping businesses and organisations to embed innovation within their plans and strategies, to help them deliver clear and consistent results.
All six episodes are available now. Topics covered include:
- collaborating within a team when innovating in order to draw upon a range of ideas, skills and support
- using clear goals to create innovation success in the short and long term
- identifying and overcoming common barriers to innovation for businesses and organisations
- establishing a successful innovation programme for your business or organisation by setting measurable progress targets.
Chris Tufnell, RCVS Council member and innovation lead, commented: “This really is an excellent series of webinars that has been produced, with direct applicability to what we, as veterinary professionals, are doing in our daily practice and I am very grateful to Harvey Wade for providing his expertise.
“While you can listen to each of these podcasts individually, I would recommend listening to them in order and as a whole series to get the best out of them. And please don’t forget that listening to these podcasts and reflecting on what you have learned and how they will influence your own professional practice can count towards your continuing professional development (CPD).”
The podcasts can be downloaded or streamed here.
Two independent vets have launched a podcast to help owners strengthen their bond with pets. Dr Maggie Roberts and Dr Vanessa Howie, who have worked in both veterinary practice and major charities, are keen to use their experience to enable people to give pets a better life.
