The Zero Zombie Zone

Posted Jun 13 2009 12:17am

Z     That's right, no zombies allowed.  Zero tolerance for slackers or deadbeats.  What we want in our practices are employees with zeal.  The go-getters of the world, be they few and far between, are what makes a dental practice zing. 
    These are the people you can't hold back.  They don't worry about breaks, whose job it is, what she meant by that, or anything else that doesn't help them achieve their goals.  They love to learn.  They're the ones that are excited about coming to work and enjoy the day and everything it brings.  Today was boss's day and, of course, we wanted to do something nice for our wonderful boss.  The sentiments in his card said it all.  "This is a good place to be."  "I feel blessed to have found this wonderful place to work."  "It's a pleasure to come to work and be with such great people all day."  That's zeal and the people brought it with them.
    What makes zeal stay?  There are a lot of ingredients that go into gathering and maintaining a zealous team.  Appreciation for what they bring, consideration for each other, concern for their well-being, and a great attitude toward the purpose of what we do head the list.  Basically, you have to make teamwork a priority and let them know how necessary their unique contribution is to the success of the team. 
    Well, I made it through the whole alphabet just in time.  My daughter is getting married on Saturday and things are really getting busy around here.  The bride arrives tomorrow and family and friends will be descending on my doorstep as well.  So, I'm going to take a break for the rest of the week.  I'll be back next week, but until then, it's all about my daughter.  I'm sure I'll have some pictures to share.  Zee you later.
