Dr. Bill Dorfman’s passion for dentistry has grown into one of the most prestigious cosmetic dental practices in the world. Known to millions as “The Michael Jordan” of Cosmetic Dentistry, Dr. Dorfman has become a New York Times best-selling author and one of the only LA based Fellows in the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry.
In this episode, Dr Dorfman joins Nick to discuss the value of having a good team when it comes to scale-up, why everyone should be inspired to copy genius, and why we should always give back when we can.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- As an entrepreneur, you feel as though you need to be the core of everything that happens. Your main job is to see to it that you have the best team possible, so that you don't have to be the core.
- It is not just acceptable to take the best ideas from those you wish to emulate. It’s necessary. The best of us will always copy genius.
- The best way to influence people is to create the direction of that education, so that it flows from their peers. Peer-driven instruction has proven to be far more effective.
- The most successful of us are those who understand the guiding principle of sharing wealth, knowledge and experience once we have achieved it.
BEST MOMENTS
‘When you get an opportunity, don’t just take it. Master it’
‘Why reinvent mediocrity when you can copy genius?’
‘Most dentists don’t know how to run a business!’
‘I don’t create products. I create category-killers’
