In this episode of Off The Record w/ Ali, Ali Oromchian sits down with Ralf Tomandl, COO of HR for Health, to discuss the evolution of the DSO Leadership Summit into the newly reimagined Dental Leadership Summit.

Ralf explains why the event is moving away from traditional large-room presentations and toward smaller, hands-on workshops designed to give dental leaders practical strategies they can take back to their practices. He and Ali also discuss why the summit is expanding its focus beyond DSOs to include practice owners, office managers, administrators, and other leaders throughout the dental industry.

The conversation also previews several of this year’s workshop topics and speakers, including workforce and staffing challenges, associate development and retention, implementing new clinical technologies, practice growth, marketing, and leadership.
