Lecture Synopsis

Dental practices have been able to thrive as small, independent businesses. However, there are a number of economic factors today that are threatening the way our practices have traditionally operated. With the looming threats of increased competition and decreasing revenue, dentists will benefit from learning how to think like a CEO. In this workshop we will learn about and use popular management models to re-imagine our businesses. Participants will complete worksheets and discuss specific strategies for their own practices.

Learning Objectives:

- Identifying macroeconomic factors that influence your practice

- Applying business management models to the modern dental practice

- Profitability analysis and calculations for investing in technology

- Identifying weak operations and strategizing how to strengthen them
