Speaker: Danny Miller, DDS, MDA Member - 2010
Danny Miller, DDS: How has the MDA helped me in my career growth? I can think of a lot of different things but the one that comes to the top of my mind is running an effective meeting in your practice. You're going to run meetings and the goal of that meeting is not to sit there and talk for an hour. The goal of the meeting is to drive results that will help improve your practice. Being a part of the MDA, I have taken part in meetings and seeing how efficient and smooth they can run and see how quick results can be delivered. I've had the ability to take CE courses on this topic and even have one-on-one coaching. I've taken those skills back to the practice to help run my meetings in our meetings. You may have people falling down rabbit holes in discussion. You may have debate that doesn't end. You may even have debate that turns a little unprofessional. In order to keep that meeting moving and drive results you need to be able to steer the ship and run an effective meeting. And that's what I learned at the MDA
