Strategic Planning
Ask yourself these critical questions:
- Do you have clear mission, vision, and values for your practice that differentiates you from your competition?
- How do you want to grow your practice?
- What is your 3 to 5 year plan to achieve your vision for your business?
- Do you regularly review and update your 3 to 5 year plan?
- Do you have a leadership and management team with the experience and training to help you meet your goals?
- Do you have well-defined, SMART goals, with specific tactics to meet your objectives?
- Have you identified and reviewed potential risks to your business and ways to mitigate them?
- How do you balance practicing medicine with the responsibilities of running a business?
- How do you achieve work/life balance?
- When is the right time to hire a new associate?
- What’s your exit strategy?
- If something happens to you, do you have a plan to manage that event?
