“Those who read this book and put the simple yet powerful tools inside to use will find stronger connections, greater engagement and commitment, and a deeper sense of meaning in their day-to-day work both with clients and team members. As a veterinary consultant, I’ll be referencing these lessons in my daily work and recommending this book to everyone I encounter.”

“I teach and coach communication skills across Canada to veterinary professionals in all types of practices, and I show and share the resources of RCVM in every presentation. Of particular value are the infographics. I appreciate the readability, the clear overview of the research project and the associated findings, and recommendations with a direct link to the paper. This is incredibly helpful to show all members of veterinary teams and it helps spread the message that communication is truly a skills-based study.”
