There is one delegation habit that quietly caps the growth of a dental practice, and it is not the one you would expect. In this episode, Dr Jesse Green unpacks the difference between delegating a task and delegating an outcome, and why the second one is where the leverage lives. He also explains how answering a question with a question builds a team that problem solves without you. 

You will see why the practices that scale are the ones where the owner sits one layer back, and how to make that gear change without panicking and running back to what you know. If you are a dental practice owner who keeps hearing yourself say it is easier if I just do it myself, you won’t want to miss this episode.
