Summary

What if the biggest threat to your practice isn't reimbursement, competition, or overhead—but the way you hire, lead, and retain people? In today's episode, I'm joined by Mike Dixon, president of Hoops, for a conversation every practice owner needs to hear. We unpack why staffing issues feel so hard, why most owners were never trained to lead, and how the right systems can turn your team from your biggest headache into your greatest competitive advantage. If you've ever said, "I just can't find good people," this episode may challenge the way you think about the real problem—and the real opportunity. ————————————————————————————— Please rate and subscribe to 20/20 Money on these platforms Apple Podcasts Spotify ————————————————————————————— For past episodes of 20/20 Money with full companion show notes, please check out our episode archive here!
