Alyssa Mages

With 20 years of experience in various disciplines of veterinary medicine, I am passionate about empowering veterinary professionals through education and coaching. As the co-founder and chief visionary officer of EVT, I help veterinary industry leaders and hospital networks to streamline their teams and training, create unique programs, and establish best practices.

I also serve as the director of MentorVet Tech, a mentorship program that not only connects veterinary technicians with mentors and resources to advance their careers and skills, but provides modular course work to enhance those skills. 

I have co-founded Nurtur - a veterinary team communication training organization - in order to hone in on the human skill we all need to constantly grow/develop, communication!

Because the wellbeing of the people within veterinary medicine is why I'm truly here, I have also be a part of the founding of Project Sticker, a 501(c)3 organization that is focused on providing the connections and resources so that every member of the veterinary team sticks with us.

Additionally, I am a tech champion at Boehringer Ingelheim, delivering AAVSB-approved presentations on disease prevention, client communication, and patient care. 

From a skills perspective, I am proficient in the advanced clinical skills required of a senior-level ER/CC, oncology, and anesthesia veterinary technician, and I hold certifications in RECOVER, FearFree, and providing RACE-approved CE. 

I am a confident & enthusiastic professional speaker, content creator, and collaborative coach, particularly focused on the growth and development of team members within the veterinary medical field.

About Alyssa's Team Leads Summit Session: Define the Role, Don't Let It Define You: Crafting Your Job Description in Practice

When you were given a “lead” title, did you get a job description or did you simply start to do more, take on more, and eventually, were given a title? This is not uncommon in the veterinary practice. What if you could take the reins on your path from here and become more inspired and even more effective as a leader? In this interactive workshop, Alyssa Mages will take you through guided activities, real-world examples and collaborative discussions to craft a job description that drives you into the next level of leadership. You will define your responsibilities as well as opportunities for growth and plans to get there!
