Is your Dental Office having a hard time keeping your team involved? Consider implementing a Team Huddle that your team wants to attend! AMP has created some of the best team huddles in offices that have increased dental case acceptance, patient referrals and overall practice reputation. 

Just like our team meets weekly to huddle, we encourage our offices to do the same.  Huddles bring value and focus for your team at the start of each day. Right now you might be asking, What are the components of a productive huddle?  

The Power of Gratitude and Appreciation within Your Dental Office

With the holidays close at hand most think of a Norman Rockwell type setting. In reality holidays prove to be a difficult time for most having to deal with stress of the season, co-workers and family. Yet the Power of Gratitude and Appreciation in your dental office (and your home life) not just during the holiday, but daily.

Practicing Gratitude and Appreciation is really all about mindset. It comes as a result of our perspective and expectations. Stephen Covey, in the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, mentions 4 dimensions to keep in mind when it comes to our lives. It encompasses: spiritual, physical, social and mental aspects.

What is the foundation of your clinical dental philosophy? "What" "How" and "Why" do you do what you do? Is your philosophical foundation build incorrectly?

Leadership expert and author, Simon Sinek, wrote a book called, Start With Why. In this book he states that it is your right to find and amplify your passion so that you can love your job. He asserts, if you knew your "Why" that you could wake up more inspired and fulfilled by the work that you do!

What is the foundation of our own personal philosophy? How will this impact your Dental Office? Success is the result of a strong foundation, weather it is personal success or success in your practice. It all begins with the attention to the small details of your everyday life. It begins with how you think, all those small little things, all those small decisions effect every area of our life. All the small actions and decisions make a massive impact on the details of your life. And it all starts with how we begin our day. Do you start by asking limiting questions? Do you begin your day by saying:

I didn't get enough rest.
I don't have enough time.
I don't have enough money.
