Your team is your greatest asset. But are they engaged or just showing up?

Disengagement rarely looks dramatic. It looks like quiet compliance. It looks like “fine.” It looks like people doing their jobs, but not bringing their best. Over time, that costs you growth, culture, retention, and energy. If you want higher performance, stronger morale, and a practice people are proud to work in, you have to understand what is really driving engagement and what is quietly eroding it. In this 60-minute leadership webinar, Dr. Dave Nicol breaks down what employee engagement actually is and what it is not. Drawing on global workforce research and real-world veterinary leadership experience, he will show you how to measure engagement properly, interpret what the data is telling you, and most importantly, take practical action that strengthens your culture rather than damages it.
