In this episode of freemeup in Practice, James Johnstone kicks off the second mini-series, Making It Work, by exploring how small, practical changes can deliver big results for your practice.
Drawing on real practice stories, James shows how silent drains — from repeat prescribing queries to clunky meetings — can quietly bleed away time, money, and morale. He explains why saving money isn’t always a saving, how to avoid the false economy trap, and why empowering your team with quick wins is one of the simplest ways to ease pressure and create momentum.
Expect case studies, medical metaphors, and practical steps you can implement tomorrow — like quick-wins boards, fifteen-minute Fridays, and two-week trials. Plus, James shares a cautionary tale about what happens when inefficiencies are left untreated.
Whether you’re a GP partner, practice manager, or part of the wider practice team, this episode will help you spot where the gains are hiding and start building efficiency into your everyday routine.
