You may need a dental coach if:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. You are facing major decisions about the future of your practice. You are wondering if you should buy, sell, expand, cut back, or bring in another dentist.\u00a0\u00a0Ask yourself:\u00a0 Do I need a trusted confident, outside of my business and family\u2014someone who can lead me to the right choices?<\/em><\/li>\n
  2. You feel that your team needs more training. Ask yourself:\u00a0 Could targeted training for specific individuals improve their performance and help the bottom line?<\/em><\/li>\n
  3. You are not sure if all team members \u201cget it.\u201d Ask yourself: Have I clearly and consistently communicated my expectations to my team?<\/em><\/li>\n
  4. You feel that your practice has reached a plateau. Ask yourself:\u00a0 Am I feeling burned out?\u00a0 Or, do I have a lot of energy but just need direction?<\/em><\/li>\n
  5. You think that case acceptance should be higher. Ask yourself:\u00a0 Am I using the best verbal skills and teaching my team to follow my lead?\u00a0 Do I have an effective follow-up protocol in place to prevent patients from \u201cfalling through the cracks\u201d?<\/em><\/li>\n
  6. You are feeling unsure about your management style. Ask yourself: As an employer, am I too harsh, too lenient, or just right?\u00a0 <\/em><\/li>\n
  7. You are worried about overhead but you need more help at busy times. Ask yourself: Am I adequately staffed to provide outstanding customer service?\u00a0 Am I utilizing the full talents of everyone on the payroll?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    If you answered yes to one<\/strong> or more of these questions\u2014or if you have other issues that you would like to discuss in confidence with a highly experienced dental coach, please contact me.<\/p>\n

    Coaching services are conducted by phone consultations, in-person visits to the office, or both.<\/p>\n

    Free consultation<\/u>.\u00a0 Contact me to schedule a free 30-minute telephone coaching session<\/u> (limited time offer) so I can start helping you immediately.\u00a0 I promise to listen carefully and provide cogent, confidential advice.<\/p>\n
