  • Episode 43: How to Create Culture with your CAs
    You are either training your CAs (and other team members) for their role... or you are teaching them to let them SHINE inside your business.   If I had a choice, I rather have team members who take ownership of their roles and responsibilities rather than creating RULES for them to follow.   I want my team members to have the autonomy to make decisions that are best for the business rather than follow a set of "systems" that restrict them.   It is easy to SAY... harder to CREATE.   To create it - you need to hire and train your CAs with the purpose of CULTURE. Culture dictates the values (the container) while allowing the flexibility for them to function within it.   In this episode, I will explain this concept of "Flexibility within a Values Container" that you might want to adopt to create a high performing team in your practice.   --  Watch the full video version of this episode on Youtube and Facebook. #LaurenceTham #DriveYourPractice #YourChiroCoach

  • Episode 42: Working Harder and More isn't the Answer

    Our mentality to GROW past a "plateau" is usually focused on doing MORE.

    Work longer.

    Try harder.

    See more NPs.

     

    But what stops us is something called "The Ceiling of Complexity". 

     

    Getting to your next goal is not always LINEAR. 

    Meaning you can't always just ADD +1 and expect you will grow at the same rate.

    Adding more to your workload adds more complexity.

     

    The magic is to create "simplicity" instead.

     

    I can't just keep adding weights to my barbell in my workouts and expect that is the only way to get stronger. 

    Sooner or later, I am going to hit a plateau. 

    And for me to move beyond this, I need to embrace an entirely different "mindset".

    And this mindset will require me to:

    Strengthen my Core competencies

    Improve my Efficiency function

    Gain Perspective

     

    When you can embrace this new mindset, you will have the capability to push past your plateau and ease into your NEW NORMAL.

     

    In this episode, I will discuss the 3 elements of HOW you can break through these barriers.

  • Episode 41: Building a Practice like a Jigsaw Puzzle

    My son recently received a 1000 piece Mandalorian jigsaw puzzle for his birthday. He started by placing all the pieces on the kitchen table. But after connecting a few pieces... that is as far as he got. 

     

     

    After a week or so of walking by it, I decided to take a stab at it. 

    I don’t believe I have ever done a jigsaw puzzle in my life (even as a kid). 

    Well, except for helping the kids on the simple ones when they were babies. 

    And after a few days, the puzzle began to take shape...

     

     

    And even though I am only 15% done... I already see 3 critical lessons that you can learn for your life and business.

     

     

    In this video, I share with you these 3 lessons that I believe can shape your life and business:

    • Know your boundaries
    • Success leaves clues
    • Piece by piece

     

    Hope you enjoy this... and wish me luck in completing it!

  • Episode 40: Create Don't Emulate Your Ideal Practice

    It is easy to copy someone and think it will create success. It is easy to do what others do and think you will get the same results. It is harder to dig deep to find out WHO you are and WHAT you want. ... and build something that defines you.

    Building YOUR ideal practice requires quieting the voices of judgement and opinions of others. And the resistance to emulate others. It takes courage to find out WHO you are and create an environment that will make you feel in FLOW.

    This video will help you find a path to clearing the "noise" and steps to create your ideal practice/business/career.

  • Episode 39: The Pros and Cons of FB Marketing in a Chiro Practice

    We all know the role of Social Media Marketing in 2021 regarding growing and sustaining your practice.

    Many chiropractors feel LEFT BEHIND if they are not using it. And then when they do try to use it... they fail miserably. And eventually, end up where they started.

    So is FB Marketing a valuable and helpful strategy when it comes to growing your practice???

    Well, that answer depends on your situation and what you are using it for.

    In this episode, I will walk you through: WHEN is it appropriate to use FB Marketing and WHEN is a terrible idea to use it.

  • Episode 38: How to Motivate Your Associate or CAs

    "I wish my associate would... "
    "If only my associate would..."
    "Why can't they just..."

    If you have ever had thoughts like this about your associates or one of your CAs... then you would have asked yourself, "how do I motivate them???"

    The answer to this is quite simple...

    But it is NOT the answer you want to hear.

    This episode will break down why it is challenging to MOTIVATE your associate (or CAs) and why you might be wasting your time.

    And show you 3 specific elements that you need to have to build a solid and effective team.

  • Episode 37: When you lose your sense of Purpose in Practice

    We all have been there, right? I know I have.

    When we feel like no matter what we do, nothing really changes.
    It's not like we are not trying.

    It's not like we don't care.

    But it does feel like we are failing at the ONE thing that is supposed to be good at.

    Life can be tricky when you are overwhelmed with those thoughts.

    You are in the best frame of mind to take any productive action.

    And inspiration at this point is perishable.

    So what do you do?

    In this episode, I share with you HOW and WHY you need to stay ON THE LINE.
    Hope this video helps when you need it the most.

  • Episode 36: The Tale of Two Flawed Leadership Style: The Micro-Manager vs The Visionary
    Leadership is not talked about enough when it comes to running a practice.   We often believe being a LEADER is inborn and can't be learned.   And so we don't spend a great deal of time learning to improve on it.   However, leadership filters top-down into every part of the business.   This includes the culture, systems and dynamics of the team. Poor leadership leads to a dysfunctional team and workplace.   Where outstanding leadership creates the desired place to work and creates exponential growth.   In practice, I often see two leadership styles that many chiropractors adopt: The Micro-Manager or The Visionary.   Each of these styles has its strengths... but it comes with its downfalls as well.   In this episode, I want to share how to avoid these two leadership styles and present a THIRD option.   I will share with you how to use to leadership style effectively to create more significant team dynamics.   -- Watch the full video version of this episode on Facebook and Youtube.

  • Episode 35: Your Logo is NOT Your Brand

    We all know BRANDING is an essential part of your business. But "branding" is not what most people think it is. It is not your logo. It is not what colours you use. It is not what font you choose.

    Chiropractors spend too much time and money hiring marketing companies to perfect their logo designs and creative business assets. They waste thousands of dollars and months hoping that a better-looking LOGO will make their business more profitable. The reality is BRANDING is not in the logo. Branding is earned.

    In this episode, I will show you:

    • What a LOGO really does
    • How to create a BRAND people CARE about
    • Where you should spend time and energy on when it comes to branding

  • Episode 34: Why STATS are Distracting you from Doing Real Work
    Are keeping STATS vital? Absolutely.   The problem in most practices is the focus on STATS is distracting them from GROWTH.   Measuring, tracking, and reviewing STATS are useful and essential to measure growth.   But only if you use it appropriately.   Most chiropractors that I observe are clouded by their stats and ultimately control their emotional state and wellbeing.   In this episode, I share how STATS destroyed my weekends and how I would use them to create healthy business growth now.   Watch the full video version of this episode on Youtube and Facebook.
