Empowering people The MacVet Podcast

    • Self-Improvement

Kristen Reyher enjoys working with animals but ultimately became a veterinarian to help the people who’s lives depend on their animals. In her role as Professor of Veterinary Epidemiology and Population Health at Bristol Vet School, Kristen enjoys teaching the next generation of vet students and supporting her research team achieve success.


Kristen has a passion for data, describing herself as a 'mathlete'. She is also fascinated by human behaviour: what motivates people in their use of antimicrobials, and how vets can communicate more effectively about motivating change to manage endemic diseases such as mastitis and lameness.



In this episode, we discuss:


supporting others to achieve their goals and change the world with their ideas,
the importance of time management when working with large teams,
how Motivational Interviewing (MI) can help vets explore farmer motivations and then give advice in a more appropriate way.



Listen in to discover Kristen's thoughts on communication, cows and coffee!
