One of the critical pieces to running a successful dental practice is having an effective office manager who can take charge, organize your team, and help run the office—without requiring constant supervision and management.
Our eDentist Director of Business Development, Kay Valentine, was recognized as the American Association of Dental Office Managers (AADOM) “Office Manager of the Year” in 2009. This January 13-15, 2011 in Denver, Colorado, Kay will lead four sessions on becoming an effective office manager at the Rocky Mountain Dental Convention. Kay will unveil practical tips and information that will guide your office manager toward his or her full potential. Her sessions include topics such as:
- Getting acquainted with ourselves
- Top 10 phrases of personal responsibility
- Understanding how others see us
- Identifying and managing top areas of concern in dental practices today
- 12 reasons why team members aren’t doing what you expect
- How to promote yourself as an office manager
- Taking control of your overhead
- Develop a TAP (team action plan)
- The SWOT method
- Striving for Greatness
- And much more!
Kay explains, “These sessions will be a great opportunity for office managers to empower themselves, discover potential weak areas that they can improve, and meet other office managers who can share in their experiences. You will truly enjoy this opportunity!”
Throughout the four sessions, Kay will share her own personal experience of working as a successful office manager at the office of Gary Llewellyn, DDS. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from Kay’s experience, find opportunities to develop yourself as an office manager, discover how to make a huge impact on the success of your dental practice, and meet Kay in person.
