In veterinary medicine, a happy, engaged team doesn’t just make work more enjoyable — it directly impacts patient care, client satisfaction, and practice profitability. But “employee engagement” can feel vague if you don’t have ways to measure it. And without clear data, it’s hard to know whether your culture-building efforts are truly working. The good…
