Podiatry Business Masterclass
The Podiatry Hive team have really enjoyed delivering the Podiatry Business Masterclass workshops in Australia, the UK and New Zealand during 2016.
We have met so many driven and passionate Podiatry Business owners and have been struck time and again at the similarities between your business challenges, even though geography separates us all.
The final Masterclass is being held in Adelaide, on Saturday 3 December. Please note these workshops are not being offered in 2017 and beyond.
Unlike many workshops, where you take lots of notes, then file them in the ‘to do’ tray – for 12 months, the Masterclass provides you with a set of real world strategies and methods you get to implement first thing Monday morning …
And the workshop counts towards CPD.
For tickets and locations – read on below.

Predatory Marketing Workshop. Friday 2 December, 2016. Adelaide.
Predatory Marketing is what businesses use to differentiate themselves from the ‘marketing noise’.
What makes YOUR practice, YOUR Podiatry services valuable and unique?
Most Podiatry practices talk about the same things and forget to mention the things that make them truly different – truly unique.
They FORGET the reasons patients should pick THEM over their competitors.
You need to FOCUS on what makes you different.
Join us this December for the opportunity to spend the day with Step Change. One of Australia’s leading marketing and strategic consultancy’s – Step Change are the visionaries behind Predatory Marketing.
Normally only available to BlackBelt Mastermind Members, this workshop is amazingly valuable and has been opened up to Podiatry Hive Members for this one date.
Obscurity is your biggest risk so take the initiative to change with the current pace of change and market your difference.
Join us with Step Change in December.
Podiatry Business Owner HR Survey
HR. Human Resources. Conflict resolution, contract negotiation, legislation … HR and HR management can send a chill down many small to medium business owners back, and this is mainly due to lack of knowledge and support.
In 2017 we are looking to welcome new HR Support and Services to the Podiatry Hive Buyers Group … In order to ensure we get ‘the right fit’ – we have put together a short and simple HR survey for you to complete.

Clinical Biomechanics Boot Camp Online.
The mission statement for the Clinical Biomechanics Boot Camp has always been the practical application of all the most recent thoughts, concepts, ideas, theories and research on foot biomechanics and foot orthotics into clinical practice. The online version takes it even further.
In the past the Clinical Biomechanics Boot Camp has covered 2 days of lectures and some practical work. The new online versions contains 4 days worth of content broken down into a manageable 20-30 minute chunks, with videos, demos, interviews, lectures and the ability to ask and respond to questions. Each topic is developed in much more depth and detail than the 2 day course.
The course is guided and interactive with checks made regularly. After working your way through the course a certificate is provided.

You want to conduct your recruitment process carefully from start to finish. You want to make sure you are attracting the right candidates, not only for the positions you want to fill, but also for the environment of your practice.
Join us on Wednesday 16 November to learn:
– How to find and attract capable and culture-fit applicants from which new employees are selected.
– How to reinforce your recruitment skills to ensure you find the right person for the job.
– Your step-by-step process for getting it right every time.
