Culture – How Do Your Patients Feel When They Leave Your Office?

When you complete the phrase “A receptionist, a patient and a delivery person meet in your lobby…” does it end in a lame joke? What is the culture of your practice? Have you clearly defined it, and if asked, can others in your practice define it the same way? Culture is felt in every interaction. Stress behaviors affect performance and a domineering leadership style falters in a poorly defined culture. It is said that “Culture eats strategy for lunch.” If that is true, then a clearly defined culture is the floss needed for every practice to succeed. To add to this complexity, resilience, well-being and health are top of mind. At the same time, team cohesion, communication, collaboration, trust and morale are being tried more than ever before. There is not only an opportunity to create an inclusive, productive and fun (yes, I said it!) culture, there is a necessity. It is time for leaders to shine.

This Master Class for professional development is fun, fast-paced, interactive and incredibly informative. Together, we’ll deftly tie the tenets of improvisation to real-world applicability in an incredibly entertaining and thought-provoking way to give you tools and techniques that you can use immediately for creating culture.

Educational Objectives:
  • Create a sustainable psychologically safe (and fun!) workplace
  • Cultivate an office that enables others to feel comfortable with collaborative decision making
  • Design strategies for developing culture through “Build-in” (versus “Buy-in”)

AGD Subject Code: 550 / There are no prerequisites for this course.
