Stop Guessing, Start Growing: 11 Numbers Every Practice Owner Needs

​​​​Being Mauled by Your Practice? Stop Guessing. Start Focusing on What Matters

Most veterinary leaders are being pulled in three directions at once.

The clinical wolf keeps you in consults. The managerial wolf drags you into constant firefighting. And the leadership wolf - the one that creates real progress - gets whatever time is left.

The result? You work harder than ever, but feel less and less in control.

The problem isn’t effort. It’s focus.

Great leadership doesn’t come from doing more. It comes from stepping back, seeing clearly, and making better decisions. And that requires the right information.

Because the truth is, your practice is already generating the data you need. The challenge is knowing what actually matters.

After years of working with practice owners, one thing is clear - there are only 11 numbers that truly drive performance.

Know them, and things start to click.  Decisions get easier.  Problems get solved at the root.
And space opens up to actually lead.

In this 60-minute live webinar, Dr Dave Nicol will show you:
✅ The 11 core numbers that drive practice performance
✅ How to cut through noise and focus on what matters
✅ Where problems are really coming from - and how to fix them

You’ll also get the Practice Performance Scorecard - a simple tool to track your key numbers and take action with clarity.

If your practice feels harder to run than it should, this will show you why - and what to do about it.

It’s time to decide which wolf runs the show.

About your instructor - Dr. Dave Nicol

Dr Dave Nicol has spent over 20 years building veterinary practices that actually work - for the animals, the teams, and the owners running them. As the owner of Roundwood Vets and founder and CEO of the Veterinary Leadership Academy, he knows what it feels like when the numbers aren't clear and when working harder stops feeling like the answer.

The 11 metrics at the heart of this webinar aren't theoretical. They've been built by people who've owned practices, run teams, and faced the same pressures you're dealing with right now - refined through hundreds of coaching conversations with practice owners from San Francisco to Sydney, Glasgow to Guam.

Dave has coached hundreds of leaders worldwide, written three books, and hosts two of the profession's longest-running podcasts. Voted VMX Practice Management Speaker of the Year in 2019 and 2024 - and if this webinar resonates, the Veterinary Leadership Academy is where that work continues.
