78 – How to create and maintain a strong pharmacy culture

by Robert Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 4 minutes

Pharmacy Culture

In these rapidly changing times, we could be forgiven for thinking only of what strategies will allow my pharmacy to survive this year, let alone 5 years from now. But thinking only of survival, and playing the numbers game has seen a strong  ‘what’s in it for me’ pharmacy culture developing  as we look to reduce operational costs. In addition, in the absence of focus on innovation, our team members now enter our businesses more focused on their financial rewards, and less on career and business development. Having received more professional certainty in the next 5 years from the 6CPA, we must now look to reverse this trend to maximise our success potential. If you would like to know how to create a strong team culture that resonates with your pharmacy’s vision and core values, then you won’t want to miss this episode of the Transpharmation Show.. Here’s a short video of reason’s why you should tune in today!

“As leaders it’s important we make bold decisions, include people on the journey, & listen closely” @tristanwhite
