Bite wounds are among the most common types of wounds that should initially be

| In this session, Professor Richard Boyatzis, Ph.D.,
demonstrates how coaching with compassion is key to leadership development and
building more resonant relationships. Based on decades of research and
longitudinal studies on the development of emotional intelligence, he shows that
people respond better when they are coached to the positive emotional attractor
(PEA) versus the negative emotional attractor. He presents doctor-patient
studies showing that arousal of the PEA increased treatment adherence for Type
II Diabetics, and he explains why PEA is central to neuro-endocrine renewal—the
only antidote to chronic stress in the human body. This session originally was presented as the keynote address at AVMA’s 2024
