Chris also discovered that he could encourage growth in his company by investing in training for his team — primarily through the PDS Advanced Leadership Program, a multi-course workshop on assessing your own personal leadership role, creating strategies to change behavior to achieve optimum results, and learning to create and sustain a positive team culture. After taking the class himself, he would encourage everyone to take it — not just those in the pharmacy industry. He said he gained the confidence to take his pharmacy to another level. “I believed I could make it happen because of the Advanced Leadership Program,” said Chris, who also sent five of his team members through the program.
