20/20 MONEY How leadership impacts practice success (and ways to improve your leadership skills) with Bethany Fishbein
Welcome to this episode of 20/20 Money! My guest on today’s show is Dr. Bethany Fishbein, OD, Consultant & Executive Coach with Leaders of Vision. Bethany and I talk about a topic that an OD might not think about directly correlating to the financials of a practice: leadership skills. However, I believe that we quickly illustrate in our conversation how the things that negatively impact a practice’s profitability—staff turnover, patients not returning, and an overworked/overwhelmed owner just to name a few—are usually the symptoms of an underlying “disease:” an owner that has neglected to focus on improving their leadership skills and emotional intelligence. Throughout this conversation, Bethany shares practical ways for owners to take action and, at the end, shares a very easy Next Best Step that an owner/leader can take to make progress.
As a reminder, you can get all the information discussed in today’s conversation by visiting our website at integratedpwm.com and clicking on the Learning Center. While there, be sure to subscribe to our monthly “planning life on purpose” newsletter that’s filled with tips and ideas to help you plan your best life, on purpose. You can also set up a Triage conversation to learn a little bit more about how we serve in the capacity of a personal and professional CFO: helping OD practice owners around the country reduce their tax bill, proactively manage cash flow, and make prudent investment decisions both in and out of their practice to ultimately help them live their best life on purpose. Lastly, if you’re interested in learning more about the 20/20 Money Membership, a platform that we created to help ODs become “brilliant at the financial basics,” please check out the link in the show notes of this episode to learn more.
And with that introduction, I hope you enjoy my conversation with Dr. Bethany Fishbein, OD.
