Are you looking for a way to discover your full potential now that you're a practicing veterinarian?

Join the MVMA Power of Ten Leadership Academy!

Designed to cultivate leadership skills and provide important real-world learning experiences, the Power of Ten Leadership Academy will provide ten recent graduates (graduated from a college of veterinary medicine within the last 10 years) with 4 leadership development sessions over a year-long period.

MVMA will provide topic experts and food at NO CHARGE for participants to attend sessions that not only convey the key learning points about leadership, but also deepen the understanding of class members on a number of related topics. Likely topics/sessions will include:

• Team building, staff leadership and relationship building with outside groups
  
• Media Training - effective communications and public speaking
  
• Personality assessments – understanding yourself and others to develop effective strategies to deal with different or difficult people/colleagues
  
• Understanding generational differences
  
• Best practices in human resources and practice management
  
• Legislation affecting veterinary medicine
  
• Work/life balance and personal wellness
  

We anticipate that classes will also create a sense of community and participants will likely build lasting bonds with members of their academy class.

What do I need to do to sign up?
