BUSINESS CONSULT
continued from page 24
You don't want to
leave anything to the
imagination, especially if it
relates to lay-offs, financial
concerns or new projects.
Be Honest. Always tell the story like it needs to be told.
Don't sugarcoat anything in your business. You don't want
to leave anything to the imagination, especially if it relates
to lay-offs, financial concerns or new projects. Imaginations
run wild and then rumors take hold. Most people want to
do business with and work for people they trust; honesty is
paramount in effective leadership.
Know the People You Lead. Get to know something
about the people that work for you. The personal connection you share with others goes a long way. There is a trust
factor that builds when your staff feels that you like them
and want to learn more about them beyond their daily duties. If you don't know anything about your staff members'
interests, families or future goals, make some time to visit
with them and learn more about them.
Be Organized. How many times have you walked into
someone's office and you can't even see through the clutter? If this is your office, your staff likely views you as disorganized and unable to grasp a practice issue at a moment's
notice. Proper files, orderly piles and a clean workspace
show effective leadership. Imagine how you would feel if
your practice was in shambles when your patients arrived.
How do you think the patient would feel? No one wants to
walk into any type of medical facility that is dirty, disorganized and looks as if no one is paying attention to the details.
If you show organization and insist this is a condition of
employment, it then becomes a part of the culture and will
always be a positive motivator for employees.
Whether you are a practice owner, team leader or manager, you expect your staff members to perform to the best
of their abilities. This starts by having leaders in the organization who are focused on performing to the best of their
abilities, while encouraging their staff to take ownership of
their duties and the future growth of the practice.
