Queen of practice management to return in 2004

A packed house of 800 plus dentists, practice managers and auxiliaries greeted Jennifer de St Georges at FDI Sydney 2003, who had the enviable position of being the one and only practice management speaker for the entire event.

The overwhelming response to Ms de St Georges and her Blueprints for Success programme at FDI has reinforced the fact that dentists everywhere are looking for credible guidance in this area of dentistry.

Based on this demand, conference organisers, Dental Education Seminars (DES), is bringing Jennifer back for a four-city tour of Australia and New Zealand in May and June 2004.

English-born Jennifer de St Georges, who now resides in California, delivers a unique global perspective on the world’s best dental practice management systems.

Jennifer is co-presenting with local practice management gurus Dr Phillip Palmer and Dr Michael Sernik of Prime Practice.

According to DES, the idea behind this seminar is to deliver co-ordinated consistent practice management material that can be implemented immediately. “Australian and NZ dentists often complain that overseas presenters seem to operate with a ‘hit and run’ agenda of seminar material. The speakers all to often use their seminars as ‘teasers’ (sales vehicle for their books and tapes). DES promises to make this seminar substantive, practical and relevant to the local market.”

Ms de St Georges is well known in the Australian and New Zealand markets, having presented here on previous occasions. In 1994 (August/September), she was the guest of both the Australian and New Zealand Dental Associations. In Australia, she did a seven city national speaking tour. In New Zealand, she presented programs at two of the branches and was the closing speaker for the NZDA’s national conference in Christchurch. In August 1999, Jennifer was the featured speaker for the NZ Dental Industry’s annual conference in Auckland, on the North Island.

Jennifer de St Georges presentation of Blueprints for Success will be the first of an on-going progressive series that promises to attract future re-visits by dentists and staff.
