Join dental business coach Andy McDougall from Spot On Business Planning for his leadership course at the BDA on July 7th[/caption]Dental business mentor, Andy McDougall from Spot On Business Planning is gearing up for his leadership course on Friday July 7th at the BDA headquarters in London.The course titled ‘Leading the dental team’ is ideal for dental practice owners and dental practice managers. Attendees will be able to gain 6 3/4 hours of verifiable CPD from this one-day course that costs DCPs £95, BDA members £150 and non-members £195.

“Gave an insight into leadership, which we in the dental practice don’t have much experience!” (A delegate from one of Andy McDougall’s previous BDA leadership courses provided this quote.)

As the dental world becomes more competitive and private patients exert their right to choose their dental provider; and as the costs of running a dental practice increase year on year, so the pressure grows for dental business owners to adapt to these changing circumstances.Growth and improved profitability are essential to long-term success and as such, dental practice principals and owners must determine the most appropriate strategy and lead their teams to achieve it. The success or failure of your leadership skills will become clearly visible in your results.

Would you be led by you?

You’re the principal dentist, the dental business owner, the assumed leader of your dental practice, but can you answer a definitive yes to the following fundamental questions?

• Do you have a compelling vision of where you are leading your dental team?
• Would your dental team be able to articulate your vision?
• Can you determine a strategy that delivers your vision?
• Are you a leader or a manager? Do you know the difference?
• Can you create a high performing dental team?

Learning objectives

If you want to achieve better results and harness the strengths of a fully committed, motivated team to deliver your strategic plan, then you need to invest in your leadership and management skills. To be successful you need both: they are the opposite sides of the same coin. During Andy’s BDA Training Essentials course you will learn how to:

• Communicate your vision clearly and consistently
• Be clear in your expectations
• Monitor and communicate progress

To run your dental business differently you have to run your brain differently – and as a respected dental business mentor Andy will use his vast knowledge and skill set to help you become the power-force at the helm. With this newfound knowledge, you will have the passion and drive to overcome any inevitable obstacles by taking action, making decisions and being the agent for change.
