Great veterinary care starts with the team behind it.

After 38 years as a credentialed veterinary technician, Rebecca knows what happens when a team truly clicks: patients receive better care, clients trust more deeply, and careers last longer. She brings that hard-earned perspective to every stage, workshop, and classroom.

Rebecca was amazing to work with as she created an employee handbook for our practice. She was very professional and easy to work with. I have learned a lot from her and look forward to implementing this into our practice. I would highly recommend Rebecca Rose to help you with your practice needs.

Careers in veterinary medicine should be long, satisfying, and sustainable.

Rebecca has spent nearly four decades in veterinary medicine as a credentialed technician, practice manager, association leader, and consultant. Along the way she has watched too many talented people leave the profession, not because they stopped loving the work, but because no one taught them how to build a career that could hold up over time. Her presentations give veterinary teams the practical tools to communicate with courage, define their purpose, value their credentialed technicians, and take care of themselves while they take care of everyone else.

Hi Rebecca! Thank you for a great presentation on Culture Crush: Designing A Supportive, Healthy Work Environment. Within 14 hours I had executed my written priority, and am steadily working at the other two. It is edifying to gain enrichment in focusing on the positive - on where we want to go. I have begun conversations with my co-workers about an ideal culture and will reveal our common goals in a couple of months. Sounds like a small step, but one in the right direction. The topics were useful, the small group interactions very pleasant, and the handouts superb.

From all of us at Hill's, thank you so much for delivering an outstanding webinar yesterday evening! I absolutely loved your interactive delivery approach as that is not something we see from speakers routinely and it definitely provided a major boost to those that were able to attend.

Virtual Lectures

Virtual sessions start with a conversation. Rebecca will want to know who’s attending, what their roles are, and what’s going on at your practice or in your organization right now. From there she puts together something that fits, whether that’s an hour over lunch, a half-day workshop, or a series spread across several weeks.

In-Person Photo

In-Person

For in-person events, Rebecca asks a lot of questions before she books a flight. Who’s in the audience, what the group has been through recently, and what you want people talking about on the drive home. A national conference, a state association meeting, and a single hospital’s team all need something different from a speaker. Tell her what the day looks like and she’ll build the talk around it.
