Show Notes


Dr. Killeen unpacks Patrick Lencioni's The Ideal Team Player framework and explains why the best hires bring much more than technical ability. He explores the three qualities every great team member should have: humble, hungry, and smart, and how missing just one of those traits can have a lasting impact on your practice culture. In this episode, you'll learn why hiring based on character creates stronger teams than hiring based on experience alone. Dr. Killeen shares practical insights to help you evaluate future candidates, protect your culture, and build a team that's motivated, collaborative, and committed to long-term success.
