Power of 10 Program

The Power of Ten Program offers a small group of early‐career veterinarians the opportunity to complete a personal and professional development program comprised of in‐person educational opportunities and activities over a 8‐month period.

The PVMA will provide topic experts, meals, and meeting expenses at no charge to the participant. Current membership in the PVMA is required for participation. Modules will be held primarily at the PVMA office in SW Portland, with the exception of attendance at the AVMA’s Veterinary Leadership Conference in Chicago! There will be in-person modules (5‐6 hours each), along with a two-night kick‐off retreat, and several less formal social gatherings with other PVMA members.

Through the Power of Ten, you will:

• Develop fundamental understanding of leadership skills, personal and professional goal setting, and emotional intelligence

• Deepen understanding of communication styles and skills

• Heighten awareness of yourself and better understand how to maximize interactions with those around you

• Gain the competency to utilize these skills within your life, practice, and community

• Experience a supportive environment that fosters meaningful interpersonal relationships and collaborative, lifelong interactions
