Mel Thompson, one of the members of our team at Savvy Dentist, joins us to talk about systems and processes on the podcast. Mel is the key person in charge of helping team members help the practice owner. She works with teams to skill them up, get them on board, and make them buy into the vision of the practice owner to help them follow systems and processes to make sure the practice is operating consistently at a high level.
Our conversation was wide-ranging, tactical and practical. We talked about creating, implementing, and getting great results from systems in your practice.
