Office Managers are typically heavy in implementation, or task doing, with merely one foot at the front of the line in the practice but now another foot that leverages some participation in management.

In a hard-driving, task-focused, unforgiving culture and organizations where managers are largely operational, the traditional command-and-control management style tends to dominate. In these environments, managers are led to believe the most effective way to ensure the job gets done is to be direct. They tell people what to do, how to do it, and expect everyone to do as they are told.

Not only is the  Super Manager mentality outdated, but the structure, the approach, and the culture is a risky strategy to continue to encourage.

As the owner, you may have been confronting the fact that there are quite a few outdated approaches to running a practice. Typically the realization comes after another external support didn’t give the expected outcomes with their brand new strategy or the run-of-the-mill system setup didn’t fire off immediate operational efficiency.

As such, the next area that is considered is typically structure. This can really be a hard fork in the road when you’re not only considering a structural change but also realizing this entails leadership development as well as organizational and cultural development.

Listen in as I address three approaches to take to break the Super-Manager mentality and start developing their management skills.

We’ve entered into the second month of the quarter and I know by saying that I don’t have to tell you how crazy the last quarter of the year can be.

Summer’s over. Holidays are approaching. You have the end-of-year pressure to meet this year’s goals while also prepping for a new year. This is the make-or-break quarter.

If you are feeling behind in Q4 and expecting on doing a fly-by strategic planning session for 2022, I want to give a bit of an insight on how I train the Director Of Operations to handle this very important area of business. 

First, to clarify, there is more than 1 planning session that needs to happen within a business. Depending on your size of practice, these meetings can be even more efficient and turn around quickly. Otherwise, you would need to be creating a communication flow for multi-sites. So, let’s talk about the three planning sessions.

1. Operational Planning:  Operational meetings are focused on what you know- your daily processes, your workflow, etc and it utilizes the perspectives of the team members to gain quick access inward and give a 360 view of the organization
2. Tactical Planning: Tactical Weekly Planning with the CEO, DOO, and Clinical Lead. Tactical meetings are focused on what you know you don’t know- meaning, areas that you are aware aren’t working but you aren’t sure why. 
3. Strategic Planning: These sessions are deep-dive sessions that should allow for performance review, deep dive into critical issues that have focus time is longer and hindering growth, define parameters of success, and allow for strategic thinking

Tackle 1 and 2 in Q4 so you're ready to take on the strategic planning in Q1!

"Many others are in the throes of midlife asking "Is this all there is to life?"  I know, I was there.  When I got real with myself, I did a 180 and have never looked back!  I'd like to share my story and leave listeners with the hope that doing their own inner work, though messy at times, is a worthy pursuit!" - Dr. Sam

Samantha "Dr. Sam" Graber.  is the creator of the Unraveling Together community, author, speaker, and podcast host. 

She helps midlife women take full advantage of the powerful transition of perimenopause.  It is at this point in our lives we face a critical choice: step into our true selves with purpose or shrink into the invisible shell society wants us to inhabit with their messaging that it is "all downhill from midlife". 

Well, that just fuels her fire and helps her light one in the belly of others!

She is a serial entrepreneur in the wellness arena.  From multi-doc practices to solopreneur, She has "been there, got the T-shirt".  She retired from a 25-year career as a holistic chiropractor in 2016 and shortly thereafter found herself in a strange and wonderful place, where she was able to reinvent herself.

She is a multi-passionate, highly curious woman. She is an Enneagram Eight, so she can change the world and has a knack for unlocking that superpower in others. I have always been drawn to forging my own path. I absolutely love sharing knowledge and helping others on the topics of entrepreneurship, holistic health, and cultivating a growth mindset.

We're here at the final piece of Measuring An Organization's Culture Effectiveness.

Psychology is often a skim-off-the-top-when-we-need-to part of culture because it truly is the hardest part of it all.

it's about US. The mindset. Our behaviors and beliefs.

If we aren't solid here, no matter how much tactical or strategic changes we make, it won't make a difference.

That's why Ashley is very much a part of the support in this structural change for YOU. We specifically wanted to support the mindset and behavior around structural growth and changes so that you can have a true transformation, a true strategic partnership with your DOO, and ultimately, the happiness in the freedom you have the team to support you.

How would it feel to allowing yourself to run a practice that is aligned with you, but more importantly, that supports the vision you have that you alone can not achieve?

It becomes a realization that the mindset around the internal support may vastly change because it becomes about us and not you.

The 3 main outcomes we want to see from having psychological support are 

1. Belief in your Vision
2. Your team is an INVESTMENT, not a risk 
3. It's time for structural change, and that's why you are here. We want you to fully trust your DOO and form a true partnership, walk through the difficulties that come up TOGETHER and expect growing pains. 

Our expert mindset coach, Ashley, will be talking about how she coaches differently and why she does so that she can provide stronger support for our providers.

Changing the way things are done appears, on the functional level of systems redesign - so should be relatively easy. However, attempting to understand why things are done in their distinctive ways, the factors underlying resistance to change attempts, and the intentional work to build a sustainable business is far more challenging. 

An Organizational Culture can’t be summed into ‘just the way of doing things' because it flatlines the strengths and growth of the business.

This can lead to the lack of innovation, creativity, and result in the owner and team feeling frustrated and falling back into silos to survive the chaos that the lack of stability.

SO that brings us to the question of what makes up a strong Organizational Culture?

We’ve identified 3 core areas of any organizational culture

1. Organization Profile, specifically identifying the purpose, what strategy type, and what stage the practice is at culturally. [Discussed on Part 1]
2. Psychology, specifically understanding and supporting mindset and allowing for structural growth and changes. [Coming out on Friday]
3. Social Psychology, specifically evaluating Inspiration, Action, Cognitive, and Emotional Agility on an individual level. Overall this Brings the Science of Human Understanding to Solve Leadership and Team Challenges and Fulfill Purpose-Driven missions. [Disucssed on today's episode]

Each of these areas strengthened individually can also strengthen the areas around them, but for long-term stability, we work on each area which results in a strengthened Organization’s culture.

Organizational Culture is often the most difficult to address and therefore strengthen, which is why it’s the VERY first place we start at in The Providers DOO Certification Program. 

Organizational culture can be summed as the shared grounded commitment in the purpose, values, norms, rules, and language of a business. Unfortunately, I’ve noticed an increase in the question, ‘what is the right organizational culture’?

Typically this question is being pulled from a larger question of, why isn’t the business thriving. 

SO that brings us to the question of what makes up a strong Organizational Culture?

We’ve identified 3 core areas of any organizational culture

1. Organization Profile, specifically identifying the purpose, what strategy type, and what stage the practice is at culturally. 

2. Psychology, specifically understanding and supporting mindset and allowing for structural growth and changes.

3. Social Psychology, specifically evaluating Inspiration, Action, Cognitive, and Emotional Agility on an individual level. Overall this Brings the Science of Human Understanding to Solve Leadership and Team Challenges and Fulfill Purpose-Driven missions.

Each of these areas strengthened individually can also strengthen the areas around them, but for long-term stability, we work on each area which results in a strengthened Organization’s culture. 

Today, I’m discussing part 1 of the framework as well as addressing the quantitative measurements of an organization’s cultural effectiveness. This is only the first step and you may need to take action to strengthen what you have created.

Let's build on your growth plans by strengthening your Organizational Culture AND transitioning your Office Manager into a Director Of Operations!
