Stepping Up to Scale Up

Jul. 27, 2019
Stepping Up to Scale Up Everyone wants to grow. Staying the same is stagnating and in this economy if you snooze, you loose. Growing is not a luxury, its a necessity. This begs the question: what do I need to do FIRST to scale up and grow my business? The answer is: Look in the mirror. YOU are the answer

The Keys To Your Success – Core Competencies

Jul. 22, 2019
It has been said that having and maintaining one or 2 core competencies can be the difference between business life or death.  This concept was first developed in the 80’s by Hamel and Prahalad in their book “Competing for the Future”. A Core Competency is defined as: SOMETHING UNIQUE THAT A BUSINESS HAS, CAN, OR (for a new business) WILL DO

Thanksgiving 2018

Nov. 22, 2018
I love Thanksgiving. I think it’s a unique and quintessentially American holiday. It’s a “glass is half full”, positive celebration. It’s one national holiday that hasn’t totally degenerated into a shopping-fest. That’s tomorrow. Thanksgiving is a time to contemplate the bounty of our lives. And, regardless of where we are in our lives, as we are alive, we have much

8 Things You Must Do Before Selling A Practice

Nov. 07, 2018
How do you build value in a dental practice? And, WHY is so important? You will probably spend more time in your dental practice than in any other single venue.  Why wouldn’t you want to make that investment of time pay off? Of course you would! So, start thinking about it early.   Ideally, you should start the process when you

Practice Management Burnout?

May. 07, 2018
Are you tired of the grind of running the practice? Is grinding teeth the easiest part of your day? Do you leave the office and have to have an adult beverage to wind down? Do you just want to avoid talking to some of your staff? Do you dread the “I’d like to meet with you Doc” request from your

March Madness

Mar. 19, 2018
I love this time of year.  I love college basketball.  Not just for the sport but for the life lessons it teaches. This year’s tournament didn’t disappoint and we’re only half-way through. Virginia was ranked #1 in the nation.  For that honor, it received the “easiest” road to the finals.  So, if you were a betting person, you’d have bet

The Changing Landscape of Healthcare

Feb. 19, 2018
With Cold and Flu season upon us, many have resorted to getting care at places other than the traditional Doctor’s office. Convenience and cost are 2 compelling reasons that these “Doc In The Box” clinics have become ubiquitous. There’s one in every strip mall in suburbia and on many corners in the City. Seems harmless; Go into CVS and get

Your competition might not be who you think!

Jan. 22, 2018
One of the proudest moments of my professional career was when I was inducted into Fellowship in the American College of Dentists. The ACD, the oldest honorary society for dentists, considers itself ‘the conscience of dentistry’. It promotes ethics and values. It teaches courses in dental schools and I’ve been proud to have taught in the ethics course at Hackensack

Dentistry’s “Changing Landscape”

Sep. 07, 2017
I don’t know about you but I’m sick of hearing this. The “landscape” is always changing, which is why, if you’re smart, you create your own landscape. While you can never become an “Island unto yourself”, you can create an ecosystem that shields you from the fluctuations of the common market. How you ask? I won’t lie to you. It’s

Leveraging Your Time

Jul. 31, 2017
Leverage is a term few of us know of and in practice, even fewer of us use. The dictionary says: “use (something) to maximum advantage”. Maybe the reason we don’t use it in Dentistry is that it’s a term most used in finance. Leverage is used daily as a way to make money. And for many dentists, making money makes
