Each Wednesday morning, as the CEO prodded his team for business projections and troubleshooting ideas, the midsize company’s top managers would huddle around a white board inside a glass-enclosed office. For 20-something Ken Kaufman, the management huddle was a silent spectacle—except for the occasional bouts of laughter that burst out from behind the glass. “The managers would always leave with this positive energy and always have new guidance for how the business could move forward,” explains Kaufman, who says that for him, over time the meeting became not just a source of weekly intrigue but also a career destination. Years later, Kaufman recalls, when he was invited to join the huddle at another middle market company, the gathering generated little energy and was far less productive than what he had expected. “I finally made it into the room, and then we spent the entire time arguing over why certain numbers were wrong,” remembers Kaufman, who—now with a business degree in hand—then began to dig into the company’s financial statements. Subsequently, he was able to introduce some business modeling approaches that allowed managers to better understand the company’s pain points when it came to growth. “I ended up sliding into the CFO role and ultimately brought the company into job costing and creating visibility that allowed managers to make decisions to build the business,” reports Kaufman, who adds that within only a few months the finance leader proceeded to ask him to take over the CFO role. –Jack Sweeney
Vince Dilley is founder and CEO of Platinum Dental Services. He took a different path than normal by going straight to into the business of buying dental practices instead of dental school.

Two examples are Community Dental Partners and Independence Dental Services, whose founders have both been on the show.We talk about how Vince boot strapped his entire operation without taking on any equity capital. He and is partner Patrick Nelson have scaled to 22 locations while retaining full ownership. We also talk about what happens when a dentist owns the real estate of a practice they are attempting to acquire, and what factors determine whether to buy or rent.

Ken Kaufman is the CFO of Community Dental Partners, a dental support organization made up of both dental and business professionals to create solutions for today's modern dentists.

Ken is a podcaster and sought after speaker for dental industry events with an aim to help as many budding dentist entrepreneurs as he can. He holds an MBA in Entrepreneurship and Finance and has been married for 22 years with eight kids. In this episode… Being in the service business industry, dentistry is all about capturing the hearts and minds of patients, staff, and clinicians. To be successful, dental practices need to be intentional with their culture and communication. This, according to Ken Kaufman, helps the staff and clinicians work in alignment, which allows the practice to attract the right patients to fit into that culture.

His finance background gives him an added expertise when helping dentists and orthodontists better manage their dental practices.

Emmet talks with Ken Kaufman, CFO of National Dental Partners (formerly Community Dental Partners), about private equity (PE) and access to capital. They discuss the 5 truths of PE: they don’t want to buy you out; they don’t want to control your clinical operations; they want you to keep a great culture; they want clarity on your vision; and they want clarity on the financials of your dental group.
In this episode Emmet discusses “Straight Talk” with Jackie Brown, Director of HR of Community Dental Partners. It’s an approach that helps address communication breakdowns in organizations and between employees by facing issues when they happen.

Conflict resolution communication always needs to happen even within a DSO that is core-value driven and has great culture.
