UVP 010: Can I Talk to You When You Get a Minute?

March 20, 2019

The Uncharted April Conference is SOLD OUT! But you can still get in on the action if you join the online community now. Check it out at www.unchartedvet.com

In this episode, Dr. Andy Roark and Stephanie Goss talk about the dread we all experience when someone says something like: “Hey, can I talk to you tomorrow?” Andy thinks there are deep-seated roots to this anxiety, and Stephanie talks about how managers feel it just as much as staff.

So, what can you do about it? Andy and Stephanie lay out mental tricks to reduce this fear, and a communication hack that nips it in the bud. They then discuss why leaders should be aware of the fear this approach causes, and how they can accomplish what they need without sending someone they work with into a mental death roll.
