…if you’ve got hiring, motivating, and inspiring your team down pat.
Does your pharmacy have staying power? (and do you?)
If you own or manage a pharmacy, you probably want it to stick around. Don’t rest on your laurels; businesses go out of business all the time — even ones you can’t imagine not being there. (Anyone remember Atari? MySpace? Skype?)
The word you’re looking for is resilience. You want your pharmacy to not only serve your customers today, but also be ready (and able) to weather changes in the market — not only financially, but psychologically as well. The road to a resilient pharmacy has a lot of twists, turns, and potholes.
Good thing for you that APC’s Owner Summit has this very topic covered.
We’ll start with branding expert Robert Friedman who will tell you How to Build a Fearless Brand as an important part of your foundation for the long haul.
Then we’ll help you look at yourself and your team, making sure you’re mentally prepared for that long haul, with Dr. Jonathan Hetterly’s Beyond Burnout: The Neuroscience of Resilience in High-Performance Cultures.
While we’re going beyond, we’ll help you be sure to protect your brand and your business with Beyond Basics: Smart Insurance Strategies for Compounding Owners with Kristen Jones, RPh, Pharmacists Mutual Insurance Group’s AVP of professional liability strategic operations. (Yes, she has a large business card.)
Finally, we’ll help you with an issue that you might overlook — but your patients and customers don’t. Attorney Mark D. Boesen, PharmD, will offer The Psychology of Pricing: A Primer because yes, smart pricing is important for more reasons than you might realize.
When it comes to your position as a business owner, you won’t find a better event than APC’s 2026 Owner Summit. It’s 100% focused on fortifying and improving your pharmacy from a business-owner’s perspective. The only thing personal about this summit is your score at the 3rd Annual OneFund Golf Tournament Fundraiser* on March 19.
* Separately ticketed event; proceeds go to APC’s OneFund, which helps pay for our advocacy operations.
