On today's episode Dr. Michael Neal of Lakeside Vision and founder of Build My Team joins the podcast to discuss the lessons he learned and process he built to hire better team members for optometry practices. 

We dive into:

• What's wrong with the conventional ways of hiring
• Why resumes are the worst place to start the process 
• Why experience can actually be a red flag
• How to streamline the hiring process 
• Aligning natural skills and abilities of candidates with the role you're hiring for
• And so much more!

This was a fantastic conversation that should help you think differently about a common pain point in private optometry practices. Ultimately, a more streamlined hiring process and a better team around you can help provide a better, more enjoyable day to day practice ownership experience.
