About the Central Texas AGD Leadership Continuum

The events of the Covid-19 Pandemic have given us a dramatic look at our future. Most major business and leadership experts all agree that the age of VUCA (Volatility- Uncertainty-Complexity-Ambiguity) is upon us, and that the only way to thrive will fall to those willing to lead. Historically it has always been true that in times of societal change, leadership has been key to meeting the challenges. Self - awareness, resilience, and conversational agility are hallmarks of being a more Conscious Leader and will all be vital to your success and fulfillment moving forward. This 3-day workshop will equip practice dentist owners, associate dentists, and team members with the skills needed to address VUCA & create a thriving dental practice that will weather future storms that will inevitably arise. 

Workshop 1: Lead Yourself | July 23rd
“Self-leadership is the practice of intentionally influencing your thinking, feeling and actions towards your objective/s”

In this first workshop, we will explore leadership from the inside-out. We will utilize self-assessments, small group interaction, and lectures. Before the live-in person workshop begins, we will connect with the attendees by sending them several resources to help on their leadership journey. There will be suggested reading materials (both a book and several articles) as well as a webinar recording to prime the pump for what we will be covering in the first workshop.

The local AGD components in Texas take pride in being a trusted resource for members and they are closely monitoring the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak. Their top priority remains the health, safety, and well-being of our dental community. At this time, they will be proceeding with online meetings in addition to limited in-person meetings that will strictly follow CDC guidelines. They are encouraging a few simple preventative measures to limit the spread of COVID-19:

Promote the daily practice of everyday preventive actions.  All attendees should practice daily good health habits to prevent the spread of any virus. Please review the Center for Disease Control (CDC) recommendations for everyday preventive actions.

Individuals who are sick are discouraged from attending in-person events or to leave events if they begin to experience symptoms. If you have symptoms of a virus, which could include fever, cough, and shortness of breath, you are discouraged from attending the event and encouraged to follow CDC guidelines.  If you become sick at the event, please promptly follow CDC guidelines, and notify event organizer by email or phone.  In addition, if you believe you have been in close contact with someone who has been exposed to the COVID-19 virus, you are also discouraged from attending any in-person meetings and it is recommended you follow CDC guidance on what to do when sick. Together, all of us can help stop the spread. To access resources, please visit  TAGD.org/Coronavirus.
