“You are the CEO of You Inc”: How to Become a Negotiating Ninja by Embracing Entrepreneurship with Dr. Una

At the negotiating table, we aren’t just physicians - we also have to be entrepreneurs. Even with the most excellent care and clinical skills, we have to be able to articulate the value we provide to the employer.

If you want to show up better, sway people to your opinion, and get paid what you’re worth - thinking like an entrepreneur is critical - in fact, we can’t afford not to in today’s healthcare landscape.

How you’re perceived and how much you can earn is completely up to you, and if you think like the CEO of “You Inc” instead of an employee, you become unstoppable.

How do we milk the most out of every opportunity by changing how we see ourselves? Why is sales an essential part of any negotiation? 

In this episode, I’m joined by an entrepreneur, physician, host of the EntreMD Podcast, and Founder of the EntreMD Business School, Dr. Una. She shares why physicians need to embrace entrepreneurship and how it positions you for success.
