The KPI Sweet Spot: Veterinary Metrics That Drive Growth, Profit and Team Performance (Without Drowning in Data)

20 Nov 2026
Business Lab

Drawing on their experience leading a successful five-site independent veterinary practice, Chris and Liz will share the six key performance indicators they use to monitor business health, clinical performance, team engagement, and profitability.

In a profession awash with data, leaders can struggle to identify which numbers truly matter. This session cuts through the noise to focus on the metrics that provide the clearest insight into performance and growth. Through real-world examples and interactive discussion, Chris and Liz will demonstrate how the right KPIs answer critical management questions around client retention, productivity, pricing, profitability, capacity, and team performance without complex dashboards or endless reports.

Attendees will learn how these metrics work together to tell the story of a practice, support better decisions, and create a positive KPI culture that engages rather than intimidates teams. The result is clearer decision-making, sustainable growth, stronger profitability, and better outcomes for patients, clients, and colleagues.

  • Identify the key KPIs that give a clear picture of practice performance without overwhelming the team.
  • Learn how to use data to spot issues early across workflow, team performance, client demand and profitability.
  • Discuss how to implement KPIs with the team whilst maintaining their engagement.
