“When you truly grasp the impact of your words, actions, and behavior, that awareness fundamentally transforms your approach to everything.”– Dr. Jonathan Baktari, Healthcare CEO, Entrepreneur, Speaker In this episode of the Pragmatic Product Chats series, host Rebecca Kalogeris engages in an insightful discussion with Dr. Jonathan Baktari, a seasoned physician, entrepreneur, and leader with over 20 years of experience. Dr. Baktari owns and operates several businesses, including multiple health clinics and a software service used in over 20,000 locations. As a business leader, he relies on technology, data, and his trusted team to reach more people than ever before. He shares his extensive knowledge and unique perspective on the intersection of leadership, technology, and employee development. Join us for an engaging conversation that blends healthcare, technology, and leadership, offering practical advice for product managers, marketers, and leaders looking to elevate their teams and organizations. Key Takeaways: 1. The Leadership Dilemma: Dr. Baktari delves into the Peter Principle, which suggests that individuals are promoted based on their current role competence rather than their potential in higher roles. This often leads to leaders who excelled in previous positions but struggle with leadership duties. Great CEOs can make the critical distinction between someone who is proficient at a job and those that would make an effective leader. 2. Micro Mentoring: Dr. Baktari introduces the concept of "micro mentoring" as a superior alternative to micromanaging. By instilling the organization's philosophy and goals in employees, leaders can empower their teams to make independent decisions that align with the company's vision. This approach fosters a sense of autonomy and encourages proactive problem-solving. 3. Invest in Company Culture: The importance of investing in employee growth and fostering a supportive culture is often underestimated. Dr.Baktari emphasizes creating an environment that encourages continuous improvement and development. By prioritizing employee development, companies can build a robust and motivated workforce dedicated to achieving long-term success.

Dr. Baktari is a medical doctor and entrepreneur who is revolutionizing the healthcare industry. He is the founder of e7 Health and eNational Testing, two companies that are dedicated to removing barriers for people to access the healthcare they need.   His inspiration came from companies like Amazon - he noticed that people could get the products they needed in just a few clicks, and he wanted to replicate that for healthcare. He and his team have worked hard to develop software and technology to make healthcare more accessible and remove barriers to care. On eNational Testing, people can order tests in just three clicks, and they can get access to thousands of locations across the US. Tests available include cardiovascular, immense health, women's health, drug testing, employee testing, wellness, allergy, STD, and more.   Dr. Baktari is focused on helping people take control of their health. He says that the three most important indicators of health are BMI, aerobic shape, and percent body fat. He suggests that people should get their annual physical, blood work, colonoscopies, pelvic exams, and mammograms depending on their age. Additionally, he emphasizes the importance of taking care of stress, diet, and exercise to maintain good health. Health care in North America Baktari states that health care has become increasingly consolidated, with equity firms buying up hospitals and medical practices. This has led to a decrease in quality, as well as the introduction of bureaucratic regulations that can make it difficult for people to access care.  Baktari states that there is a problem with the current healthcare system due to the fact that it is a transaction between three parties - the patient, the insurance company, and the medical director. The doctors are now employees, rather than being in private practice, and that has resulted in a decrease in quality.  He believes that it is important for people to take personal responsibility for their health care and to look for ways to get testing done while waiting to see a doctor. People need to take personal responsibility for their health care and become part of the solution. How to improve health care  Baktari suggests that health care can be improved by making it more accessible, affordable, and efficient. He believes that reducing bureaucratic regulations and consolidations, as well as creating more virtual options, can help make health care more accessible and affordable. He also suggests that streamlining processes and providing more incentives to those who put in the effort to take care of their health can help make health care more efficient.

Dr. Jonathan Baktari is a healthcare CEO, vaccine and COVID-19 expert, and physician with specialties in internal, pulmonary, and critical care medicine. When asked what responsible leadership means to him, Dr. Baktari explains that it is about more than just growing and moving the ball forward economically for an organization, but also taking care of everyone in the organization. He believes that responsible leadership means waking up in the morning and trying to move the ball forward for everyone in the organization. He also emphasizes the importance of preventative medicine, vaccinations, and testing for viruses. With his expertise, Dr. Baktari strives to bring the best advice to help people succeed in responsible leadership. The conversation explores the relatively new art form of health entrepreneurship, which is becoming increasingly popular in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. It is difficult for medical professionals to transition into the field of entrepreneurship due to the time and energy they devote to their careers. However, some have been able to make the transition by focusing on their career while also dedicating time to their entrepreneurial endeavors. The conversation also mentions that many entrepreneurs have a noble purpose behind their work, which is likely true for those in the medical profession as well. Those in the medical profession may be motivated by a desire to help others, cure diseases, or find new treatments for illnesses. The conversation is about how health care professionals may feel conflicted about turning their noble purpose into a business and making money. It is suggested that helping people through clinical medicine is a great way to make a huge difference in people's lives, but it is limited to helping one person at a time. It is suggested that there is also value in finding ways to help people on a larger scale. The speaker talks about how his transition into entrepreneurship was gradual and based on a number of experiences and interactions over time. He encourages people to explore different paths and experiences to find what they have an affinity to. They discuss how one can be ready to take advantage of opportunities when they present themselves. The speakers share how their career has been steered by various opportunities that have opened up to them over time. They explain that it was not a one minute epiphany, but by taking advantage of opportunities that opened up, they were able to gain different skillsets. They also advise that one should always be ready for when an opportunity presents itself, as you never know which one could change your life. Finally, they remind listeners to always keep their antenna up, as you never know what conversations or opportunities could arise.
