You know what’s worse than not having an office manager? Having the wrong one. We all want that "perfect" hire, but perfect on paper rarely works in practice.

This episode explores what really makes someone the right fit, whether you're promoting from within or hiring from the outside, and how to set them up for success in their new role. You'll learn three important things: the trade-offs of hiring internally vs. externally, what you need to do before handing over the reins, and how to keep your practice running smoothly — with or without a manager.

Topics discussed in this episode:

  • Why most outside hires fail
  • The #1 onboarding mistake
  • How to successfully promote internally vs. externally
  • How to interview new office managers
  • How to “build your bench"
