In this week's episode, Gary Takacs shares the importance of leadership in a dental practice and how you can develop it. This is an area where so many dentists feel like they are out of their depth. Generally, when you ask a dentist how much leadership training they have, the answer will either be absolutely none or a little bit. Leadership is about guiding team members to do the things that you need to do within your practice. It is about providing the motivation, inspiration, and direction that they need. Simply, it is when the doctor and the team are all in the same boat rowing in the same direction towards commonly defined goals and objectives. There might be people who are naturally more of a leader than the other, but leadership is mostly a learned skill. Whether you have the characteristics in your personality or whether you have to develop those, you can always learn to be an amazing leader, but if you want to know how, you will need to listen to the podcast. Besides, to the 4-tips, Gary will also be sharing books that you can read to develop and understand the importance of leadership and the impact it has on the culture of your practice.
