I have been in more than 100 practices over the years of meeting with practitioners about their businesses, and have seen with my own eyes the state of the nation regarding the desks within. Some have been very impressive and were designed in a way to give the impression of a calm, cool and collected
Have you ever experienced an entire day … or week (or month … shudder at the thought) without anyone appreciating one or more of all the right and positive things you did? Ever feel unappreciated? Do you occasionally wonder if anyone cares that you put your heart and soul into producing excellent products? Maybe your
As a practice owner, you have a whole new year ahead of you and instituting positive, correct changes right NOW will make it a BETTER year. It is like a blank slate. You can write anything on it you want to. Or you can do the same old, same old and have the same result
