  • 50. What your personality type says about the business owner you’ll be, with Dr. Gerilyn Alfe, DMD, MBA
    Aug 28 2024
    We've all met them: The leader who throws out a thousand ideas a minute The big personality who can't be trusted to follow up on anything The boss who wants to be everyone's friend but can't make hard decisions The business owner who suffers from "paralysis by analysis" These stereotypes can be a drain on any business's productivity. However, when properly channeled and balanced, they can be high-achieving employers who lead their teams to greatness. In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Gerilyn Alfe, owner at Get Ahead Coaching and Consulting, and a former practicing dentist and dental practice owner of 25 years. In addition to her private practice, she’s worked as a speaker, hands-on instructor, and mentor to thousands of business owners throughout the country. She'll explain the four main personality types, provide insight into the strengths and weaknesses of each type, and offer advice on how to leverage these traits in business.

  • 49. How to build a business that spans generations, with Dr. Joseph Legg II, DMD
    Jul 31 2024
    In a profession as deeply personal as small business ownership, it's no wonder that so many small businesses are passed from parent to child. However, we all know family dynamics can be complex. If you haven't clearly defined and agreed upon your roles, hierarchy, and succession plan, a business that spans generations may quickly reach its expiration date. In this episode, we're hearing from the son of a father-son duo of endodontists about what he’s learned from being in business with his father and his tips for successfully establishing a multi-generational business. Our guest, Dr. Joseph Legg II, bought MicroSurgical Endodontics of NEPA from his father, Dr. Joseph Legg, who has practiced endodontics for over three decades in Northeastern Pennsylvania. And together, we'll discuss: What inspires a son to purchase his father's business What it means to build a legacy in small town USA How to ensure a smooth transition of ownership Why it's important to seek external advice from industry experts The benefits and challenges of operating a multi-generational business Are you ready to take control of your future and start building your legacy?
