COSTA MESA, Calif. – December 11, 2012 – CareCredit is offering a complimentary educational audio CD, Accountability = Energized Teams and Satisfied Patients, featuring Dr. Rhonda Savage, chief operating officer of Miles Global, a practice management and consulting firm exclusively serving dentists.
Accountability creates an environment where team members are empowered, energized, confident in their roles and responsibilities, and aware of the value they contribute to the team and to patients. In this audio program, Dr. Rhonda Savage shares how accountability “done right” can improve communications, efficiency and help the practice run smoother and more professionally.
“Accountability is a good thing,” says Dr. Savage. “When your team has clarity on what is expected from them and when, and are given the time and tools they need to succeed, they will be more engaged, more focused and more productive. Accountability is easy to implement as a system in your practice and will lead to improved team morale and patient care.”
Dr. Savage shares her four-step system of empowering accountability and outlines how daily coaching is a cornerstone of better team communication. She also details the proven “feel, felt, and found” technique, which can be used to enhance communication between team members and with patients. How to give effective performance reviews and the importance of celebrating individual and team success are also discussed.
