Regardless of their political party, all presidents follow a playbook… one that dentists can also follow to be better practice leaders.

The first thing every president does (even before getting elected) is lay out a vision… a statement of where the president wants to take the country. Dentists should do the same thing to galvanize and inspire their staff about achieving a brighter future.

Second, every president lays out goals for the American public… and dentists should do the same for their staffs. Each year, select 10 key goals, share them with your staff and review progress monthly.

Third, presidents often recognize the positive accomplishments of the people who work for them and for the American people. Dentists should likewise spend time acknowledging the hard work of team members in order to create confidence, trust and self-esteem.
