Listen "How to delegate with success in Dentistry"
Episode Synopsis
One of the secrets for stress reduction is to accept what you cannot control. That’s our starting point today.
Either you are a practice owner or not, a specialized dentist or a general dentist wanting to start doing specialized work, or maybe a general dentist wanting to delegate certain parts of the work (endodontics, pediatric patients, orthodontics, for example) you have to be able to delegate with trust.
If you are a very good technician that will bring success for sure. Success will bring complexity, and complexity can be the worst thing that can happen to you because it can put your success at risk.
We start by discussing how you can explain to your patients you are sending them to another colleague and tricks on how to do it in an effective way.
In the second part of our conversation we talk about how to achieve a team culture where people hold themselves accountable, rather than have a false accountability attempt forced on them. The result will be enhanced productivity and agility in the face of today's pace of change, leading to individual as well as business growth and success.
In the end we discuss accountability and the 7 Keys to Developing a Positive Accountability Culture:
1. Practice what you preach on accountability
2. Effectively communicate your expectations
3. Provide assessments based wholly on facts
4. Delegate control commensurate with accountability
5. Align accountability with organizational objectives
6. Be an advocate and promoter for team members
7. Provide a safe place for difficult issue discussion
