This is a one year customized business development process. The shift for the doctor or team is to become and develop the entrepreneurial side of their practice. Structures, models, and systems are set in place to develop a practice that excels in all areas of professional growth. Doctor and team members are part of four unique Individual Performance Customized Coaching Sessions (CCS I & CCS II) experiences with ongoing, on-site personal coaching for an entire year to incorporate and execute new systems, profitability strategies, and create a health-centered, sustainable practice.

Initially, a Business Development Specialist evaluates the practice, and baseline statistics are completed for a PROFIT FIR$T Investment Return Analysis (IRA) so that a starting point exists from which to measure future progress. You assess current strengths and weaknesses and determine how you would like to grow your practice for the future. The IRA helps you identify what financial, business, and professional goals you desire for your practice and life.

The Entrepreneurial Training Course begins with two Individual Customized Coaching Sessions (CCS I & CCS II) for the doctor team: CCS I, a three-and-a-half day session held in your area, and CCS II, a two-and-a-half day session held in your area. The third course, "Co-Discovery Case Presentation Retreat", is for DOCTORS ONLY. This is a two-and-a-half day Interactive Learning Session at Rainbow Retreat Lodge in North Bend, Washington. "Team Synergy" is an optional two-and-a-half day team building Interactive Learning Session in Big Sky, Montana or Maui, Hawaii. In addition, monthly business statistics are collected and monitored by your office. These measure such things as production, collection, cash collection, accounts receivable, recall effectiveness, treatment acceptance, overhead expenses, etc. Entrepreneurial systems are incorporated to develop your own business model/philosophy for generating new growth and possibilities. You will receive conference calls with your Generative Development Coach -- (see Deb Castillo’s and Barb Stackhouse’s biographies) -- to review practice business statistics, review goals/systems, vision and discuss new strategic and financial planning strategies. Usually, these are conference calls that include doctor and key team members. In addition, you will receive hands-on business coaching with doctor and team members in your office to enhance and monitor all levels of performance. You will also receive monitoring of your cash flow with new software to enhance profitability. Team development, team growth, and unity are key outcomes of this process.

This program emphasizes: Entrepreneurial development, philosophy, personal growth, and development of the doctor and team members; clearly articulating and communicating your primary aim, personal vision, with practice renewal and new growth. We help you develop a life-long master plan and a blueprint to achieve life-long success.
