Let's face it, if finding ways to create motivated employees by way of incentives were easy, we wouldn't be spending so much time discussing it.  A little discussion on how to approach the idea is on todays menu.   If you are feeling like you have an opportunity for growth in your workplace on the "people" side of things, email or call Lisa at lisa@lisamergens.com or 833-876-8326 to schedule a free 30 minute consultation to discuss your challenges and see if working together can help you.

Welcome Back! Today we begin with a recount of a conversation I had recently that may ring true for some of you.  Afterwards, we delve into a brief overview of different leadership styles, and wrap it up with my opinion on what works best in a dental practice situation.  Now that we have finished covering what I call the "Three Pillars", 1. Workplace Culture 2. Communication/Conversation 3. Leadership we have our foundation to move forward in the show covering different aspects of how these three work together.  Next week I will have an extra-special treat for you, so stay tuned!

Episode 3...  Excuse the little cold I have... I'll learn to stop saying the word "and" ... :)  it's hard to talk to yourself, you know...I (MIGHT) need a communication coach. All kidding aside, let's learn the ins-and-outs of how conversation and communication has a larger impact on our dental work lives than we may realize...it's more than simply telling people what they should be doing or asking for something. There may be lot of psychology and even some brain science behind it, but I try to keep it light and easy to follow. Remember, this is just a foundational episode so as we move forward, we can start assembling these pillars and apply them to the many models of leadership and situations we will be discussing in the future.

Wohoo!  Time for Episode 2!   Today we are beginning at the beginning...fundamentals of workplace culture and why it's important.  We aren't diving deep into the nitty gritty here, but setting the stage so as we move through each segment on the journey to learn more, we have some basics down for reference...and we get to see how cooking soup is sort of like creating a culture.
