All of us admire tech companies for the products and services they create that make our lives better, and we marvel at their celebrity CEOs who create a company from nothing. While tech company leaders should be highly regarded for what they've achieved, I don't think there's much to learn or apply from their companies to our own. Healthcare service practices are people-oriented, service-driven businesses that ar...

More and more Founders are creating and investing in significant doctor development programs, but effective clinical skills are often only half of the equation.

This episode is based on current events of the past two weeks. As business leaders and business owners, you need to embrace the challenges ahead and communicate clearly with your team. I'll share my own personal example of leading a team in the NY/NJ market during what became the Global Financial Crisis. None of us know how this is going to play out, but it's up to each of us to create some level of certainty fo...

So many of you in this audience enter the world of business entrepreneurship through the world of medicine first. While this is completely understandable, I think too many lose sight of the fact that being an entrepreneur is actually a choice we make. Choosing to be an entrepreneur carries with it a tremendous weight in competitive markets, and healthcare services is definitely one. That being said, there are pl...

I recently appeared on the "Insurance Untangled" podcast with Founder and host, Ben Tuinei. We talked a lot about the evolving landscape that is the dental industry, so I figured there might be some pearls of wisdom worth sharing through this podcast feed.

We're all hopefully evolving both as entrepreneurs and as leaders, so it's important to understand what makes us effective at both. While we all have a variety of assets that make us who we are, there's one that's most important for us in each department. Equally, there's a currency (or a commodity) that can be useful to becoming more effective at what we do. I'll slice and dice both in this episode to give you ...

I've spoken on several different occasions and on numerous podcasts about my underlying fear that we all run the risk of becoming commoditized if we don't take a more proactive approach to enhancing the patient experience in our practices. The bar is low because your competition is doing absolutely nothing in this area, so even small things can create a big impact. In this episode, I tell the story of my favorite...

Steve Jobs has a wonderful commencement address to the 2005 graduating class of Stanford University where he talks about "connecting the dots [of your life] looking back." His central point is that the interconnectedness of life only makes sense in the rearview mirror, but it should equally give us confidence as we navigate the uncertainty that lies ahead. This episode is a reading of the Freshly Brewed blog I re...

I'm constantly amazed when I ask someone about their growth strategy that they so frequently reply with the refrain, "...and I want to sell my business for $10 Million." The number "$10 million" seems to come up with a HIGH degree of regularity. I wonder why that is? I also wonder how well the person has actually defined it. Ever wonder what it would actually take to put "$10 Million in the bank"? Well...let m...

Dr. David Phelps has built a tremendous alternative investment company with a very high-level membership. I've been privileged to be on several of their webinars and his podcast. This was a very deep discussion that we recently had from his podcast, so I figured I'd share it with all of you.

Quite a few of you have asked about different aspects of "my story," so I figured I would take an episode to tell it from a "what can you take away from the experience" perspective. I'd actually encourage each of you to do the same with your own journey. You might be surprised at what you can learn...from yourself! I hope you enjoy this episode. Got questions? I've got answers!

Three great friends of the program join me behind the microphones for an incredibly candid and wide-ranging discussion on what it takes to go from 1 or 2 locations up to 5 to 10 locations. We share lessons learned on business and life in an incredibly transparent conversation. Are you interested in joining us in the program for Q2?

I know we're all driven entrepreneurs who are determined to create success, but I'm not sure everyone is truly mindful of how we should define success. Is it yours or someone else's? This is a an exploratory and introspective episode around age and stage of life as well as happiness and what matters most. I hope you enjoy it!

We all love the podcasts where we hear from someone who has 50 to 100 locations, but has anyone ever bothered to tell you how nerve-racking and outright scary it can be to go from one to two locations?! It's arguably the hardest step you'll ever take, so I asked two friends of the program, Dr. David Laurino and Dr. Joshua Conway, to share their personal experience. You're going to love this episode! Got questi...

Why do so many people let their ego get in the way and convince themselves that they should buy another practice when they have a LOT of upside left in their current practice?! Dr. Duc Tang, Dr. Matt O'Shea and Dr. Travis Watson are all master clinicians who own tremendously productive solo practices that are the equivalent of 2 or 3 practices under one roof. Twice the production with half the chaos. Tune in to ...

A colleague recently asked me if I had a "Decision Tree" for those in the early stages of a new venture. While I do not, and I think it would be close to impossible to create a decision tree for all circumstances, I do believe there are a handful of key questions every business founder must contemplate in advance of having to make a decision on each one. Curious as to what those questions are? Tune in to find ou...

The mark of an effective executive is the ability to create greater results through others than he or she could create on their own. The quest begins and ends with instilling belief and confidence in others that they don't currently have in themselves.
