Layers of Leadership

Is it just you on the top?

Or do you have people in the middle layers that can help make decisions?

It is important in order to build strong leaders throughout the organization that you are not always the one in charge. Sharing responsibility of certain areas or letting someone else be in charge can help boost morale as well as empower individuals to step up. 

For example, if your front office is not very good at social media but your hygienist is, then you will want her to be the lead in this particular area. And if your back office is really good at ordering your supplies then they should be the person who is in charge. 

You do not have to always be the one in the lead role. When you allow other members to help make decisions it will help them step up and take responsibility because they are now in charge of something specific and they were able to give input into the process.

Everyone in your office has areas that they excel in, you want to capitalize on these areas in order for your office to be great in all areas.

Great teams take effort. Take time to work on your practice regularly to build quality communication and strengthen your results. For more information and to read other articles, please visit us at www.saltdpm.com.
