Why A Coach Provides An Energy Boost
Your practice belongs to you. You’re the one in charge, and it’s your job to lead the pack. Sounds like a lot of pressure? That’s because it is! Dentists feel obligated to energize their teams all on their own. And let me tell you, that can be a real challenge.
When your team is feeling unenergized, what’s your go-to solution? For many dentists, it’s gift cards, motivational speeches and tons of coffee. Don’t get me wrong—I love coffee as much as the next guy. But if I was feeling unenergized at work, all the free coffee in the world wouldn’t be able to fix that.
Just know this: you don’t have to do everything on your own.
That’s where coaches come in! A coach can provide the energy boost your team’s been looking for. And it’s not just your team—YOU need an energy boost, too! (FYI: even ACT Dental has a coach.)
People can only focus for 90 days. If you get stuck in the grind, burnout is sure to come. Coaches bring the quarterly reset you need to stay focused, motivated and energized. They help you create new goals and get your team ready to conquer the next quarter!
