Know anyone in your dental practice or any other practice who gossips? Absolutely nothing kills team morale more than gossip. We need to hold each other accountable because overcoming gossip can be the dynamic for the culture of your practice and contribute to how successful you are moving forward. Make sure you have rules of engagement/communication for your team written in your employee manual so everyone knows exactly what’s expected.
In this episode of Gloves Off, we’ll talk about how gossip can erode your practice, what to do to protect your team, and how to ensure your practice is a healthy, gossip-free zone.
Dental pros and dental patients, send us your questions! We’re talking about important topics that happen all day every day in the dental practice.
