What if there was a way to optimize your work hours, boost morale, and increase productivity, all while making your employees happier than ever before? In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with Dr. Paul Yoo, who's managed to shatter the conventions of the traditional 9-5 workday in his dental practice. Based in the beautiful Kauai, Paul attributes much of his practice's success to the unique "lifestyle hours" he has instituted, proving that when it comes to business, sometimes it pays to think outside the box.

Starting off as a treatment coordinator with little knowledge of the industry, Paul's journey of building his successful practice hasn't been devoid of struggles. Yet, through sheer determination and a strong objection to unethical practices, he's not only built a thriving business but also fostered a work culture that champions trust, honesty, and independence. Stay tuned as we delve into how Paul encourages higher performance without resorting to micromanaging, cleverly implementing incentive programs and bonus structures.
