“Do you have to get an MBA? The answer is probably no, but what do you want to learn?”

~Dr. Chad Johnson

What would an MBA do if they came into your office and looked at your systems from a business point of view?

If you’re anything like most entrepreneurial dentists, you’re always asking yourself how you can do things better. Can you streamline processes? Can you develop a better system? Can you bring in more money for your bottom line? The questions are nearly endless.

It’s almost inevitable that most dentists end up entertaining this thought: “Maybe I need to hire an MBA to look at my systems.” Or even better, “Maybe I should get my MBA so I have the knowledge I need to improve my practice myself.” 

The problem is by the time you pay for an MBA and invest the valuable hours of your life, you’re looking at a time-consuming, expensive investment. And hiring an MBA to come into your practice can be out of your reach financially. 

So we have an alternative question for you: what do you want to learn?

We love to make your lives easier! So we’re doing the hard work for you and reviewing a number of MBA-alternative systems and methods to help you get the MBA knowledge without the time and financial cost.

• What your business goals are
    
• What knowledge you feel you are missing
    
• What you want to learn and apply in your practice
