Turning Around a Crisis with MaKenna Little


Episode Summary


MaKenna Little is back again on the MedMan Podcast. In this episode, MaKenna shares her wisdom of crisis management turnarounds. After MedMan purchased a clinic several months ago, MaKenna was all hands on deck to manage it and transform it into a whole new facility. Her mission was to create a space in which someone could feel at home and receive quality care too. When the previous provider left, MaKenna saw the opportunity to take a pivotal turn within the clinic, and get a new perception from the community.


Tune in to catch some of MaKenna’s best advice on team building, patient customer care, setting goals, and stress management!
