Business Series, Session 1

Is your practice growing rapidly, expanding to multiple locations, and making a real difference for your patients—yet you still feel out of control? Are you running your practice, or is it running you?

Join Mark Henderson Leary to learn how to level up your business chops and take charge of your success.
You might be facing some of these common challenges:

• Lack of control over your time, your market, or your company.
• People issues—team members who don’t listen, understand, or follow through.
• Profit struggles—inconsistent or insufficient financial performance.
• Growth plateaus—your practice is expanding, but you can’t seem to reach the next level.
• Quick fixes that fade fast, leaving you with the same frustrations.

If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Many practice owners find that the key to making a bigger impact, living their best life, and leading a thriving practice is to clarify, simplify, and achieve their vision.

In this session, you’ll learn two real, simple, and practical tools to:

• Clearly articulate your vision for your practice.
• Get the right people in the right seats to make that vision a reality.

By defining your mission and vision, you’ll also begin to get unstuck in other critical areas—like building a financial plan and infrastructure, hiring effectively, and putting systems in place to support growth.
Join Mark as we kick off this series and learn how to finally get a grip on your practice.

What You’ll Learn:

• The Six Key Components™ of a successful practice: Vision, People, Data, Issues, Process, and Traction.
• A powerful tool to clarify and achieve your vision.
• A simple, effective tool to ensure you have the right people in the right roles.

If you’re ready to build a dynamic organization with happy patients, mission-driven leadership, clear accountability, and the freedom to truly achieve your vision—don’t miss this workshop. You’ll leave with hands-on tools you can start using immediately to create a thriving healthcare practice.
