The Fear Free Practice for Employees
1.0 CE Credit Hour / Veterinarians & Veterinary Technicians Track: Practice Management
Overview:
Does your staff routinely call in sick to get three days off in a row? Do you find people eagerly waiting at the time clock at the end of the day waiting to clock out? Does your staff turn away when the leadership comes near them? If your team is afraid of the work environment because of the way they are treated, if they feel that they have no voice or if they constantly criticized, you have created a fearful work environment. Going to work at a veterinary hospital shouldn’t be Fear Factor it should be Fear Free. But how?
Learning Objectives:
- Learn to identify a hostile workplace from a healthy one
- Understand the different types of fear within the workplace.
- Learn the impact of a workplace driven by fear
