PBN delivers the goods
September 18, 2012
Pharmacy delegates from
every state and territory in
Australia assembled at the
National Convention Centre,
Canberra for the first ever
Pharmacy Business Network
(PBN) that ran from 13-16
September.
The PBN took a practical
approach to putting on an event
with a unique focus on providing
attendees with the tools to
improve business planning,
management and profitability in
their pharmacy.
In a positive learning
environment the attendees
interacted with industry experts
and networked with people from
all levels of the pharmacy
industry. Pharmacists,
pharmacy students and CEOs all
mingled in the open forum
provided by the PBN.
“The delegates attending the
PBN have strongly endorsed our
practical and interactive style as
unique and rewarding” PBN
Chair, Patrick Reid said.
The PBN also hosted the final
presentations of the National
Student Business Plan
Competition with the University
of South Australia announced as
the winner at the Gala Dinner on
Saturday night.
The encouraging atmosphere
at the PBN and the “hands on”
methods used in different
sessions throughout the event
ensured that all delegates had
real action plans to take back to
their pharmacy.
Highlights included
presentations by the 2012
Pharmacy of the Year winners,
how to deal with tricky human
resource issues, and the launch
of the Guild’s new guidelines on
reporting turnover to landlords.
