“If you accept change and learn better tactics of how to adapt to it, you have a much better shot of keeping your performance at a high and sustained level.” ~Adrienne Reynolds, Ph.D., SPHRi, SHRM-SCP
In this episode of Everyday Practices Dental Podcast, host Regan Robertson is joined by a special guest, PDA's Chief HR Officer, Adrienne Reynolds, Ph.D., SPHRi, SHRM-SCP, for an insightful discussion on a topic that affects every dental practice owner: adapting to constant change.
Change is inevitable, but how do you and your team handle it? Are you excited by the new possibilities, or do you feel the weight of uncertainty pressing down on you? Regan and Adrienne explore this critical subject, sharing strategies that dental teams can use to not just survive change but to thrive in it.
You'll hear about PDA's recent half-day training session where the entire team came together to tackle the challenges of constant change head-on. Adrienne shares the importance of adaptability in maintaining high performance, even when change is stressful. Whether it's about keeping a positive mindset, managing ambiguity, or ensuring your energy levels are up to par, Adrienne provides practical insights that can help you and your team navigate the ever-shifting landscape of a dental practice.

- How do I typically respond to unexpected changes in my work or personal life?
- Which of the three core elements of adaptability - inner voice, ambiguity threshold, or energy supply - do I need to work on the most?
- What practical steps can I take to improve my adaptability and help my team do the same?
