## Resource

In this episode of Management Unfiltered, hosts Kirk and Zach explore how dental practice owners and office managers can better support associates by setting clear expectations, building strong systems, and creating an environment where doctors can thrive without having to think like owners. They discuss onboarding, compensation transparency, regular check-ins, and ways to empower associates to feel valued, productive, and invested in the practice.
