In this interactive, high-energy course designed for the entire team, Laci Phillips reveals how to redesign patient advocacy, care, and communication around the Patient Life Cycle.

Creating Leaders in your Practice: Key Systems to Building a Perfect Team
A dream team starts with visionary leadership and is built on a solid foundation: Systems, structure, communication, and the never-ending pursuit of excellence.
Designed for the whole team, this interactive, resource-rich course covers critical systems every dental practice needs for developing leaders. Identify critical hiring protocols, learn how to keep the right people in the right roles, and what should happen when you discover it’s just not a good fit.
The answer to every frustration in business is a system—including “people problems.” Systems organize our world; they also support leaders in developing and retaining a high-functioning, self-directed team.
Your Practice Through the Patient’s Eyes: It’s Never Just About Dentistry
Noticing a decline in practice production and profit? Needing to attract and retain more patients, but just not sure what you need to do differently?
Between social media, your website, online reviews and word of mouth, most potential patients have an expectation of your practice before their first visit. Is your practice living up to those expectations?
Put on a different pair of glasses and see things from a new perspective. Uncover the unseen gaps in your practice that patients notice—sometimes at an unconscious level. Gain an action plan to identify the tangible and intangible details to evaluate. Leave with renewed vigor, excited to make the changes which will generate raving fans and increase production.
Constantly Plugged In: Desperately Seeking Balance
Are you seeing and feeling the effects of chronic connection?
Technology is everywhere today, demanding our attention. Ever on alert for the next ping, chirp, or tweet, today’s constantly connected nervous systems are in a 24/7 state of high alert. Technology designed to help us be more productive – if not used effectively – can be counter-productive.
Discover practical resources and gain skill-based techniques for disconnecting, establishing a peaceful balance, and maximizing productivity through technology. Learn how to get the most from your practice management and email systems. Examine powerful practices for tapping into your core. Sit back, take a breath, unplug, and rediscover the art of focused calm.
Living a Ruby Red Life: Reclaim and Leverage Your Talents, Skills, and purpose
Did your dreams get lost somewhere along the way?
As we work to build a life as responsible adults, we tend to set aside our passions and interests until we feel that a piece of us is missing or stagnated. Similarly, we can lose the passion and purpose we once had for dentistry. You or a team member may have the ability to play a bigger role in the practice, yet you’re not sure how best to reclaim that passion for dentistry and/or life.
Ease on down the yellow brick road with Laci Phillips to reclaim and leverage your talents, skills and purpose into a more fulfilling career and life. Explore what self-directed leaders can do to reignite passion and drive in the team, including identifying the gifts and abilities that may be overlooked. Discover simple steps for empowering others and enabling a mindset that attracts one’s best life. Click your heels, renew your purpose, and reclaim a place you’ve thought you could only dream about. There’s no place like home.
“What can a meeting planner say about Laci Phillips? After working with Laci since 2015, I can say she is that rare blend of knowledge and humor that fills rooms with attendees, challenging them to look at new concepts and leaving them with ideas to employ in the office tomorrow. She is organized, bright, fun and, from the planner’s standpoint, cooperative and ready to put new ideas to work. I hope that Laci will continue to fill rooms at Midwinter for years to come.”
