Resilient....not sure I like the word anymore....as it has as many negative connotations as positive in the workforce these days, especially with the rise of burnout, exhaustion, and poor mental health being a universal issue across all industries. Oxford dictionary meaning rings true however: (of a person or animal) able to withstand or recover quickly from difficult conditions. "babies are generally far more resilient than new parents realize" The very nature of what we do for a career makes us resilient...however, job design, workplace well-being, and taking an integrated approach to our responsibilities as an individual, a team member, and most importantly as an organisation will be necessary for a thriving future. Despite it looks like I am having a lie-down 😴 .... I am very excited to be talking about it in a BIG PICTURE sense in regards to the future of our profession on a global platform with Sarah Hoggan DVM from the USA and Andy Green from the UK next week. We all share different perspectives but have the same #commonpurpose and #goal...patient advocacy and how this melds with our people advocacy in 2024. Join us (with CPD points to boot) for an interesting panel discussion on the future of our profession for ezyVet's #mindfulmay. #mentalhealth #workplacewellbeing #vetmedicine
