I wasn't let go, I quit Scott's position because it was terrible. If what he is preaching is what his offices are doing, then I dare say his business model sucks monkey balls. I don't even know where to begin to describe my criticism of his model, whether it's the 12 hours workdays, have minimal staff so that everyone is worked out completely during those 12 hours, paying the staff (including the dentist) minimal wages,etc. etc., I was there firsthand and experienced everything. And it sucks. Not sure what the hoopla around him is, but then again he is a speaker--and speakers know how to manipulate peoples emotions whether he actually has substance or not.
The office I worked for him was a poorly sited one with at least 5 other dental offices nearby. As a result, it is not doing well and probably can't either in that kind of environment, and apparently his 'magic formula' that he is trying to preach is not working. When I quit at office had gone through 9 dentists in two years. In the end, a lot of the stuff he says in his seminars is common sense, as you say, so I see no need to worship the guy. He is just another corporate bloodsucker disguised as a 'Joel Osteen' kind of speaker.
