VETgirl spotlights upward influence in practice leadership podcast

VETgirl is spotlighting a common workplace challenge in a new practice leadership podcast, “How to Have More Influence on Upper Management in Your Practice,” part of its broader leadership-content collaboration with VetLead. The episode appears in a four-part series aimed at helping veterinary team members navigate leadership, culture, and career growth, and it extends VETgirl’s push beyond clinical CE into management and workplace development. That collaboration, announced in October 2023, was designed to bring more leadership, team, and culture content to VETgirl’s audience, while VetLead positions itself as a resource for veterinary practices dealing with turnover, disengagement, conflict, and change.

Why it matters: For veterinary professionals, the topic reflects a real pressure point in practice life: many team members are expected to help improve workflows, culture, and client experience without having formal authority. VETgirl and VetLead are framing influence as a learnable skill, not just a title-based privilege, at a time when leadership development is getting more attention across the profession. VetLead says its programs focus on accountability, engagement, hiring, conflict, and self-leadership, all areas that can shape retention and day-to-day team function in hospitals. (vetlead.com)

What to watch: Expect VETgirl to keep expanding non-clinical CE, especially leadership and culture programming tied to workforce stability and team performance. (marketing.vetgirlontherun.com)
