What do dental office systems have in common with a bagel? More than you think.

In this episode, Linda Kane sits down with Kyle Summerford—founder of Dental Office Managers Connect and a seasoned dental leader with 20+ years of real-world experience—to unpack his signature “Bagel Method.”

Whether you're overwhelmed by too many hats, struggling to lead your team, or just looking for a smarter way to streamline daily chaos, Kyle’s practical approach is built for real-world dental offices—especially the ones short on time and staff.

You’ll learn:

• What the Bagel Method is and how to apply it to your patient journey
• Why most office systems fail—and how to simplify them
• How office managers can lead with confidence, not burnout
• The power of servant leadership (and why it’s often missing)
• Why community and self-awareness matter more than titles

This one’s for every office manager, team leader, and practice owner who’s ready to ditch the overwhelm and build systems that actually work.
