In this Dentist Money™ interview, Pat Rosenzweig, co-owner of Mosaic Management Professionals, discusses the process of elevating your human capital. Drawing from her 30+ years in the industry, she explains the mindset you should cultivate within your staff, the value to place on technical versus people skills, and how to maximize each person's contributions.
