The Emotionally Intelligent Dental Office [EPUB ebook] 

If you have worked for any length of time, no doubt you’ve noticed that navigating office climate and culture may command more energy than the actual work at times. Why are some office cultures humming along like a beautiful symphony, while other work environments feel like pulling teeth (pun intended) just to get things done? Why are some people so pleasant to be around, while we might prefer a root canal over talking to others? Emotional Intelligence. Does your practice and people have it? 

Emotional Intelligence is the capability of individuals to recognize their own emotions and those of others, discern between different feelings and label them appropriately, use emotional information to guide thinking and behavior, and manage and/or adjust emotions to adapt to environments or achieve one’s goal(s). Frequently, Emotional Intelligence is more of a driver in office dynamics than intellectual ability or book smarts.

In his follow-up book to the highly successful The Dentist Who Gets It…Endodontist, coach and business owner, Dr. Steven Hymovitch, offers a practical, play-by-play guide to assessing, building and keeping an emotionally intelligent dental practice that is a pleasure for employees and patients.
