Session Overview

Organizations have long relied on traditional hierarchies, with a chain of command in which only those at the top make decisions. However, many startups today are choosing a more nimble, future-focused approach, incorporating distributed leadership into their business models where decisions are made at all levels of the organization, not just by top-level executives. This allows for a more flexible and responsive organization that can quickly adapt to new challenges. Like most organizations, veterinary practices have relied on this leadership model for far too long and continue to face numerous challenges as they try to navigate a new business world characterized by rapid change, disruption, and complexity. 

Join veterinary leadership expert Dr. Rob Trimble, along with Talkatoo CEO and serial entrepreneur, Shawn Wilkie, as they discuss how leaders in veterinary can pull ahead of the pack by replacing the outdated leadership hierarchy with a distributed model to improve speed, productivity, innovation, talent retention, and employee wellbeing.
