Ladies and gents, he’s back. Dr. Dave Moghadam is again on the podcast, this time to talk with Kiera about quarterly team calibration. While there’s no silver bullet A-to-Z cookbook for how to operate a practice, an outline certainly helps. Dr. Moghadam shares his outline for setting up the ideal quarterly calibration meeting:
Start with the why (review practice’s mission, vision, and values)
Align over treatment, planning, and diagnosis
Review what makes your practice stand out
To keep things exciting each quarter, Kiera and Dr. Moghadam also chat about ways to shake up the meeting.
