VPMA helps managers get to grips with performance reviews

Performance reviews are often dreaded, and not just by the staff being assessed! Managers looking to develop an effective review programme without the headache are urged to attend the Veterinary Practice Management Association’s afternoon meeting on the 11^th March in Kilmington, Devon.  Practice Manager of Pelyn Vet Group and VPMA Regional Co-ordinator, Renay Rickard, will discuss how to develop an engaging and robust appraisal system, including induction processes, use and development of job descriptions, goal-setting and key performance criteria. Renay will emphasise how to engage the practice team into the review process, so that it becomes something that staff actively look forward to. The seminar also includes Health & Safety updates from Mike Woolnough from Peninsula Business Services.

The seminar is part of the VPMA’s programme of regional meetings, which are open to both members and non-members. The meeting starts from 1.30pm with networking (and cake!) at the Hitchcock Cricket Pavilion in Kilmington. Talks commence at 2pm and will finish at 4.30pm. The rate for members is just £12 and £18 for non-members.
