Success A business is successful if it can effectively transist through the roles of entrepreneur to producer to administrator and integrator. This role transition can be within the DDS owner or through the utilization of office staff. This is why it is important to know your own strengths and weaknesses and to hire people who will complement them. Failure Failure can occur either early in the business venture or later.
Early failures are usually due to an inability to shift from production to administration.
The result is a inefficient organization that projects the image of poor quality to the patient. Late failure is usually due to over administration to the point where the entrepreneurial spirit is discouraged from recognizing changing needs and developing ways to meet those needs. January 22, 1997.
