This week, the Dental Amigos welcome Alex Nottingham, founder and CEO of All-Star Dental Academy, for a dynamic and thought-provoking conversation about what it really takes to build and lead a high-performing dental team. Drawing on his experience as a business leader, speaker, and coach, Alex shares practical insights on reducing costly staff turnover, improving team training, and creating a culture of accountability and care. Alex breaks down why dentists often get in their own way when it comes to leadership—and how shifting from manager to visionary can transform their practices. He also talks candidly about the value of coaching, what makes dental events impactful (or not), and why most dentists are surprisingly great on the phone. From building onboarding systems to getting buy-in from your team, this episode is full of real-world advice for practice owners who want to work smarter, not just harder.
