I’d like to give you a follow-up on the Daily Focus I wrote December ninth about the Knee Clinic I am consulting on. The team has come together and we took the keys to the suite one week ago.

Wow! That vision of the perfect team was realized Monday evening at our open house. Indeed, all the right people came together to complete this project… top, top talent! The list is endless, from the landlord to the general contractor to the electrician to financing to logo design to copywriting to IT to HR to equipment supply and setup… it just goes on and on. So many people came together to make this all possible, and so many of them were people in professions that I didn’t realize were needed to get this done.

I believe the primary reason they all appeared in perfect timing with perfect ideas was the intention of thought I set six months ago. I could visualize the energy of all of them, even though I could not see their faces.

And now Knee Specialists of Wisconsin, a center of excellence for the treatment of moderate to severe arthritis of the knee, exists! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Here’s the Daily Focus from six months ago…

The first principle in building a great team is to acquire top talent.  – Pat Williams

Fifteen years ago when I was building a team in the network marketing industry I studied a lot of leadership and team-building material. One of my favorites was Pat Williams’ book The Magic of Teamwork: Proven Principles for Building a Winning Team. He was the Senior Executive Vice President of the Orlando magic basketball team. The Magic went from an NBA expansion team to the NBA Finals in just a few years.

Wherever people come together to get a job done, that is a team. I currently have a contract to develop a new medical clinic here in Milwaukee specializing in treatment of arthritis of the knee. As I am working on this project, I am reminded of this critical first step:  acquire top talent.  So, how do you do it? Simply put your attention on it… continually, precisely, and deeply. In other words, think about it! Oh, and allow no doubt or opposing thoughts to creep in.

I am setting the intention to be surrounded by the best specialists in the business, including marketing, advertising, call center service, mail fulfillment, clinical care, physical therapy, office management, billing, medical assistance, and of course reception. Each specialty player is as important as the next, and our project will only achieve maximum success if each player holds the mission and vision of the complete project, and is masterful at their own particular specialty. This includes the building owner and manager as well.

I have set the intention, and continually place my attention on these masterful specialists finding me, and am having great early success in almost every area at this point in time. I’ll keep you posted…
