The Ted Lasso Inspired Strategy That's Boosting Dental Practice Morale
Have you seen Ted Lasso? We coach a dentist who happens to be a HUGE Ted Lasso fan!
In the show, Ted makes a banner that simply says, “Believe.” This inspired the Summit Square Dental team to create their very own Believe Box—a place where people can shout out their colleagues for modeling the practice’s core values. The lead dentist collected all those messages and combined them into one big Believe Banner!
And that’s just one idea. There are endless ways to keep your core values fresh!
Anyone can put words on a wall. Anyone can say they believe this or believe that, but at the end of the day, are they really living what they believe in? Core values are more than just words; they need to live and breathe through your team.
Get creative with your approach. Try one idea this quarter, then try a different idea the next. The goal is to help team members act on their values—and recognize them when they do.
Core values play a role in every decision, both big and small. Read more on how your values can lead you down the right path.
