Investing In Your Team

Blog Articles-Weekly Training, Side-Bar Video, Video Resources
Invest in your 'good' team members and make them great.   What if I told you there is a really valuable, over looked resource that is right under your nose?  And it’s your team. There is no such thing as a successful practice without a supporting team.  In the day-to-day routine of your office, it would not work if you didn’t have your team there helping you.  And I feel that all too often doctors don’t invest enough in their teams on a consistent basis. Now I am not saying you don’t treat your team well.  They have a great job working with you, with some great benefits.  But what I am talking about goes a step further.  It is what sets apart a good practice and a great practice…

Continuing Your Learning After Dental School

Blog Articles-Weekly Training, Side-Bar Video, Video Resources
Dr. Ginger Bratzel talks about the importance of being a life learner long after the school books are closed. From one dentist to another we both know how hard we had to work to earn our degree.  We invested a lot of time and money into achieving the status of “Dr.”, but I don’t want you to think that the last day of dental school (what a relief it was!) was your last day of learning. Most of us in our nature are lifelong learners, a personal and the ‘business of business’ learner. While I know you take many CE courses each year to improve your skills and maintain your dental license.  You may be a master or fellow of an advancing training dental organization like The Academy of General…
