Balance your professional and personal life.
It’s tough enough to be the principal of a hugely busy London city based practice – to then be chosen as President of the British Association of Cosmetic Dentistry brings a pressure to bear that few of us will experience.
James has always been an excellent time manager and understands that boundaries have to be in place between the needs of his young family, his patients, his support team in the practice and his wider and growing influence as a thought leader within Dentistry.
The old adage “if you want something done ask a busy man” is brought to life in the way that James organises his potentially hectic schedule.
I first saw Chris in 2003 in a seminar. He had endless enthusiasm and a thirst for the business of dentistry. It was unique and refreshing. I instantly signed up to work with Chris and took all my team on his course. We have since become friends and share the lecture podium.
He still visits my practice every 6 months. I always have time for Chris, you get what you see on the tin and more. The more you put in to a business relationship with Chris the more you get back. I would thoroughly recommend having a chat with him if you want more. If you're happy with your lot, want to watch you practice get overtaken by the competition and your team move to somewhere they are appreciated then don't bother.
