As your company grows from a practice to a business to an organization, things start to become more and more complex.
Things that used to work are no longer effective.
The success you’ve achieved thus far has been through hustle and sheer force of will, and the goal line seems to keep getting further away.
Your team is unable to produce consistent results and morale is low.
You worry about retaining your most talented people. You are starting to feel burned out and no longer have enough time to grow like you want to.
In short, you’re stuck.
Most entrepreneurs are great at building the plane while they are flying it. They’re problem solvers and quick to make the necessary adjustments while still in the air. In comparison, most employees more than likely do not possess those same skills, so in order to replicate the successful result the entrepreneur was able to deliver, and do it faster, better, and more efficiently, they need an exact framework with processes and systems to follow. That framework is the power an operating system provides.
What is an operating system?
An operating system is a comprehensive approach to running a business. It is a set of interconnected and structured processes that provide a clear roadmap to achieve your business goals. It allows your entire organization to execute in the most efficient way possible, and creates a consistent, common language that drives clarity and alignment.
Businesses with operating systems tend to grow faster and healthier than businesses without one, so having any type of operating system will eventually guide you towards growth. However, having the right operating system will result in mass acceleration and growth.
With the right operating system, your vision will become clearer to both you and the leaders in your organization, and connecting your high-level objectives to the day-to-day operations will become a lot easier.
Choosing the right operating system
There are plenty of well respected operating systems out there such as EOS or Scaling Up. They are all great…but share one problem…none of them were built for a dental company. Fortunately, that’s where organizations like the DEO come in. Through training and education, we have created the first-ever operating system specific to the dental industry.
Built just for you in this critical time in dentistry, The Dental Operating System is the culmination of our best work, and our gift to the industry. It will make your life less stressful, your impact more meaningful, and your business more successful.
