SUMMARY:Webinar - 12/10/20 - Recruiting the Next Generation to Your Agency - NACA/Justice Clearinghouse
DESCRIPTION:How many of you have heard the words “well\, we’ve always done it that way” as an excuse to not grow and change? As leaders\, it is our responsibility to grow teams with unique points of view to gain fresh ideas and perspectives and ensure growth\, change\, and continued success in our organizations.  Many leaders\, in our industry as well as others\, tend to be a bit controlling\, and since many of us have done just about every job in animal welfare\, we may think we know how to do it all.  We aren’t wrong about knowing how to do it\, but do we know how to do it best? This session is designed to discuss how leaders within animal welfare can approach recruitment\, retention\, and promotion to foster a diverse team of subject matter experts to help take their organization to the next level. \n  \nOther Webinars in this Series Include:\n\nDec 10: Recruiting the Next Generation to Your Agency\nApril 8: Staycations and Daycations – Building Short Term Foster Programs\nJuly 8: Building and Maintaining a Productive\, High Volume Fostering Program\nJuly 22: The Care\, Nurturing and Enrichment of Tame & Feral Volunteers\n\n  \n\n \n  \nThe National Animal Care & Control Association (NACA) was formed in 1978 for the express purpose of assisting its members to perform their duties in a professional manner. We believe only carefully selected and properly trained animal control personnel can correct community problems resulting from irresponsible animal ownership. NACA’s purpose is to preserve the Human/Animal Bond by insisting on responsible animal ownership. \n  \n\n  \n\n\n\n\nPresenters:\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Josh Fisher has an educational background in population management/medicine\, public health\, veterinary sciences\, informatics\, and healthcare administration.  He has been working in the veterinary medical/animal welfare field for over 15 years holding management roles in private practices\, cooperate practices\, the NCSU College of Veterinary Medicine\, county government\, and now as the Animal Services Director for the City of Charlotte/Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department. \nA strong advocate for professional development and growth in the animal welfare industry\, Josh seeks to involve staff in continued education and training opportunities as well as in cutting edge industry research.  His professional interests focus on disease reduction/prevention\, advanced marketing/placement and intake reduction tactics\, strategic planning\, and staff career development in the area of animal welfare.  His projects include increasing interest of veterinary/veterinary technician students in the animal welfare industry as well as working with community veterinarians to break down barriers\, develop relationships\, and increase involvement in community-focused animal welfare (animal control and sheltering) practices. \nIt is a passion of Josh’s to bring a level of awareness to the animal welfare industry in such a way that young adults and college students make the decision to pursue animal welfare as a profession rather than falling into it by chance. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.justiceclearinghouse.com/webinar/recruiting-the-next-generation-to-your-agency/
