131: Structuring Your Healthcare Team for Optimal Performance
Is your healthcare practice structured for success, or are you simply filling roles with warm bodies?
In this episode of Practice Freedom, Mark shatters the myth that people must define an organization's structure, advocating for a “Structure First” approach that could revolutionize your private practice. We step up to the plate and use the baseball diamond as our classroom, showing how a team's setup can change the game when tailored to fit the players and the end goal. Forget the old org chart. We're bringing you the dynamic EOS accountability chart—a tool that promises clarity and growth potential, ensuring that every team member's role drives the practice forward while enriching their professional journey.
As our healthcare teams grow, the bullpen can get crowded, and that's where the game can get tricky. We get into the nitty-gritty of management and organizational structures in growing companies, where the dreaded “soft belly” of middle management can mean losing sight of the ball. Mark lays out the game plan for keeping accountability in check, and with tools like the People Analyzer at our disposal, we're calling the plays to ensure every team member is in the right position and genuinely aligned with the practice's core values.
It's more than just a numbers game. It's about crafting a winning team where each player is positioned to hit a home run for the organization's success.
