Tasks and activities

Simple, low stakes

Complex, high stakes

Why did/ didn’t it work?What have we learned about ourselves?What can I apply in the future?

more trust

Relationship‐buildingWhat’s your 

name?Where are you 

from?

What are your values?

… these are mine….

We’ll tell each other about ourselves

I’ll trust you with some of the stuff of my life….

We’re not all the same:‐appreciating difference Appreciate that difference does not imply superiority or inferiority

Different personalities behave in different ways

So don’t judge if someone else’s personality/behaviour is different to your own

Students become a cohesive cohort, with a ‘professional identity’…

• Leadership is a critical characteristic of the veterinarian

• Leadership skills need to be taught as part of the veterinary curriculum

• The ‘point of entry’ leadership programme reinforces students’ entry to their profession

• The programme facilitates the teaching of professional skills throughout the degree

• The programme provides a class‐wide bonding process, that is vital for success in the degree
