    Summary
    In this episode of the Hey Docs! Podcast, host Jill Allen welcomes back Kimberly Collins for an insightful discussion on the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and its practical applications, particularly in small business settings like orthodontic practices. They explore how understanding personality types can enhance team dynamics, improve leadership, and address workplace conflicts. Kimberly explains the four categories of the MBTI, the importance of self-awareness, and the legal and ethical considerations when implementing personality tests in hiring and team management. The conversation emphasizes the value of emotional intelligence and psychological safety in creating a harmonious and productive work environment.

    Takeaways
    • The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) can be a powerful tool for leaders, particularly in small business environments like orthodontic practices, to enhance self-awareness and understanding of their teams, ultimately creating more harmonious workplaces.
    • It is illegal to use personality typing systems like MBTI or Enneagram for hiring, job placement, or promotions. These tools should be implemented after hiring to understand team dynamics, not as a selection criterion.
    • MBTI focuses on "what" people do, categorizing behaviors and preferences, while the Enneagram digs into the "why" behind actions, examining underlying fears and desires. Both can be used complementarily within a practice for different purposes.
    • For personality typing systems to be effective in a workplace, psychological safety must be prioritized. Team members should feel comfortable expressing themselves without fear of retribution from leaders or colleagues.
    • Understanding that individuals and their leadership styles can evolve over time is important. Regular reassessment and continuous self-improvement can help leaders and their teams adapt and thrive as they grow professionally and personally.

    Summary

    In this conversation, Andrew and Reed discuss the benefits of owning dental practice real estate versus leasing. They highlight the importance of considering long-term needs and the flexibility that ownership provides. They emphasize that owning real estate allows for building equity and creating additional financial opportunities at the end of a dental career. They also mention the tax benefits and the ability to control the atmosphere and neighboring tenants when owning a building. The barriers to ownership, such as availability and cost, are also addressed. Dental Real Estate Partners offers a unique approach to dental real estate ownership through partnerships. They help dentists navigate the process of owning their own practice space, even if they don't have the upfront capital. They work with dentists to find the right property, structure partnerships, and secure financing. The availability of commercial real estate and capital restraints are the main barriers to ownership. However, there are opportunities to negotiate prices and find creative financing options. Dental Real Estate Partners can assist dentists at any stage of the process and provide guidance and advice.
