JOIN KIRK BEHRENDT IN HIS PRIVATE "To The Top" Study Club

Be prepared to reach new heights! This exclusive study club gives incredible dentists and leaders the opportunity, once per quarter, to get OUT of their practice to work ON their practice. Spend the day surrounded by like minded dentists, and inspired thinkers, striving to be their best. To The Top Study Club brings the dentists in the ACT Dental community together, in the same room, fostering friendships, mentorships, and the amazing ability to and help one another learn and grow.

**Q3 will focus on - Effective Leadership, Healthy Practice: Solve Your Biggest Headaches

Dentists don’t often dream of becoming leaders—but the truth is, the biggest challenges in your practice stem from how you lead. From lack of follow-through to team disengagement and the stress of managing it all alone, these “headaches” are symptoms of a deeper need for intentional, effective leadership. In this session, we’ll help you reframe leadership not as a burden, but as a skill set that brings clarity, stability, and results. Together, we’ll explore practical strategies to build accountability, foster engagement, delegate with confidence, and lead your team in a way that supports the vision and health of your practice—without burning yourself out.

Objectives:

1. Understand the connection between leadership habits and common practice

challenges.

2. Learn practical strategies to build accountability and follow-through across the team.

3. Explore methods to engage and motivate your team without micromanaging.

4. Identify ways to lead confidently while balancing clinical, business, and personal

demands.

** All VIRTUAL registrants will receive a digital copy of the workbook.
