8
9 LEADERSHIP Definition: The art of motivating a group of people to act towards achieving a common goal.
10 BUDDHIST TRUTH Life is Difficult! Dentistry is Difficult! Leadership is Difficult!
11 Jerry Gropper, DDS DENTISTRY IS DIFFICULT!
12 DENTISTS MUST HAVE THE EYE OF A SCULPTOR,
13 THE HANDS OF A SURGEON,
14 THE INSIGHT OF A THERAPIST,
15 THE KNOWLEDGE OF A SCIENTIST,
16 AND THE FINANCIAL ACUMEN OF A BUSINESSMAN.
17 DENTIST S REQUIRED SKILL SET Sculptor Surgeon Therapist Scientist Businessman
18 ADDITIONAL SKILLS REQUIRED CEO, CFO, CIO Head of Production Head of Human Resources Head of Marketing Communication Community Service Etc..
19
20 Smiley face! If you can grow your leadership tools, you will become a better dentist! And have a life of significance.
21 It defies logic. WHY IS LEADERSHIP SUCH A DIFFICULT CONCEPT TO COMPREHEND AND IMPLEMENT?
22 CLAYTON CHRISTENSEN There is no one size fits all approach that anyone can offer you. The same hot water that softens carrots also hardens an egg How will You Measure Your Life
23 INVOLVEMENT VS. COMMITMENT How committed are you? Are you involved or committed?
24 PERSEVERANCE II
25 FOCUS
26 Effectiveness in leadership depends on your level of commitment and focus. KEY POINT
27 IMPORTANT QUESTIONS Who are you? Why are you here? What do you stand for?
28 CORE VALUES The values that define you or your organization Un-wavering even if it puts you at a competitive disadvantage
29 COLORADO DENTAL ASSOCIATION CORE VALUES Effective leadership Open communication Ethical behavior Moral courage Strong advocacy Fellowship Teamwork
30
31
32 CORE VALUES The importance of family, The power of team, Being leaders, Commitment to learn and grow (both personally and professionally), Commitment to the community.
33 Have you ever said yes, when you meant no?
34 If you stand for nothing, you will fall for anything KEY POINT:
35 Can you identify the core values with these famous leaders? LOOK AT OURSELVES
36 BE THE CHANGE YOU WISH TO SEE IN THE WORLD.
37 MY FELLOW AMERICANS - ASK NOT WHAT YOUR COUNTRY CAN DO FOR YOU, ASK WHAT CAN YOU DO FOR YOUR COUNTRY.
38 WE HOLD THESE TRUTHS TO BE SELFEVIDENT, THAT ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL, THAT THEY ARE ENDOWED BY THEIR CREATOR WITH CERTAIN UNALIENABLE RIGHTS, THAT AMONG THESE ARE LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS.
