Doing a Little Extra

Despite it being such a normalized part of modern society, aquariums and zoos have to be thoughtful in the way they use social media. It can be a double-edged sword. Today we discuss the good and the bad of maintaining social media for these types of institutions. www.patreon.com/aquatizoo [email protected] www.magicalvacationplanner.com/staff/lori-semple

When change is needed, it is important to discuss the the worst possible scenario and the best possible outcome. Doing so, we can put things into perspective, use good judgment, and determine next steps all while giving ourselves the best chance at success. www.patreon.com/aquatizoo [email protected] www.magicalvacationplanner.com/staff/lori-semple

Perhaps you've wondered what happens when a large or exotic animal passes in a zoo or aquarium. While not the most upbeat of topics, it is one that we have to deal with from time to time and it's best to be clear about how it works! www.patreon.com/aquatizoo [email protected] www.magicalvacationplanner.com/staff/lori-semple

If you're anything like me, the paperwork side of your job can be entirely overwhelming. There are ways to streamline and make necessary actions a lot easier and more palatable.

It is unlikely that visitors ever give much thought to what medications might be onsite at their favorite aquarium or zoo or how they are used. The innovation of veterinarians should be celebrated and respected, as medications and healthcare are crucial to good animal care. www.patreon.com/aquatizoo [email protected] www.magicalvacationplanner.com/staff/lori-semple

We all get a bit older. Animals are no different! How do aquariums and zoos navigate the challenges that accompany advancing age and decreased mobility? Well... with the welfare of the animal in mind of course!

We've all been frustrated by people who don't want to listen, but how practiced at it are we ourselves? Have you paid close attention to what you do when someone else speaks? Why does it matter? Today we discuss the challenges of truly listening.

Having a goal in mind is important for the progress of any organizations. Today we discuss the benefits and challenges of discussing where we're going, why we're going there, and why we need to plan how we get there. Fun times with strategic planning! www.patreon.com/aquatizoo [email protected] www.magicalvacationplanner.com/staff/lori-semple
