Having graduated in 2012, our super GP "Batman" has worked hard at a group practice in a large metro area. With all that experience in his utility belt, "Batman" has now moved, made a bit of money, and is ready to pull the trigger on an acquisition. The only problem? He doesn't like the area. Tyler and George help him spot his landing so he can acquire a larger practice with room to grow in his target cities of Dallas or Houston.

Practice Under Water | Mystery Guest "Gigi" Part I

The Cost of a Dominant Personality

Man or woman, it's going to be hard to find (and keep) staff that fits your results-oriented, competitive management style. Out of school since 2003, our successful guest Gigi has done 2.2M as a solo doc with a solid new patient flow. She is absolutely dominating her area. So how is her practice "underwater"? Her turnover is out of control! Matt explores her vast dental experience, training style, leadership style, and the role of metrics in her practice.

Justin Hale, productivity guru at VitalSmarts, joins Richard today. Uniquely positioned at the the intersection of VitalSmarts and Getting Things Done methodology, Justin shares his perspectives on productivity. Capturing intentions in a place other than your own mind, replacing to-do lists with 'next action' lists, and clarity to Get. Things. Done. All inside.

They've been butting heads on Facebook but decided to bring the discussion on-air. Is George impressed with Austin's dissenting opinions? Let's see whose approach nets better results.
