The symptoms
What wasn’t working.
- 01
The practice could not function more than 48 hours without the owner
- 02
Every patient escalation routed back to the owner, even for admin
- 03
The owner had not taken a real vacation in 4 years
- 04
The team had the skills but had never been given the authority
Our approach
A practice that runs without the owner
We built the smallest possible Playbook and decision rights matrix the team needed to keep the practice safe, legal and warm for two weeks without the owner.
- Mapped the 12 situations that absolutely required the owner (then reduced to 3)
- Playbook pages for the top 20 patient and admin scenarios
- A named "owner on duty" rotation for the team
- A 20-minute daily huddle during the two-week trial
