Gary Kadi tells dentists to stop cloning themselves and delegate operational work to a practice manager. Owners keep responsibility for solvency and culture, but hand off the doing. Low-value tasks steal the time you need to grow.

Stop asking how do I do this? How do I clone myself and become multiple people to get things done? And really start asking, who can take this off my plate? Empower a practice manager to really own daily operational tasks that you do not need to be doing. Another way of looking at this is the difference between responsibility and accountability. Now you are responsible as the business owner for all of the overarching things that happen, right? The solvency of the practice, the culture of the practice, and the vision of the practice. You can delegate the doing though, so you own the responsibility, you delegate the accountabilities. Stop letting low value tasks steal your day.
