FEATURE #76 – Enhancing the Dental Team with Kathy Metaxas
The Dental Head Start Podcast
The Three Eyes of Leadership
A good leader is someone that inspires other people as always, says Kathy. "When our team grew, and now we have, you know, I'm taking on a more senior role" She hopes to inspire Hugh and Hayden to make the show their own.
Hosted by Erica Hwin
With over 44 years of experience in the dental industry, Kathy Metaxas knows a thing or two about dental practices. She is the founder of Platinum Professional Development, a motivational speaker, dental educator, coach and advocate for patient care and management, fostering strong team culture and implementing systems to ensure dental practices can function at the optimal potential.
One of the things we love doing on the podcast is bringing on people who aren’t necessarily dentists, but are fundamental and integral to our industry. We all know a dental practice is only as good as its staff, and in today’s episode Kathy talks us through it all. We talk about leadership, teamwork, how generational differences affect us and her advice for new grads entering the world of dentistry.
