Dr Manjula Jegasothy: How to build and retain a top team

Dr Manjula Jegasothy is founder and CEO of the Miami Skin Institute. In addition to being known for its natural-results approach, her practice is also known for its extraordinarily loyal staff. The key members of her team have all been with her for 7 years - or more. Attracting and keeping top talent is critical for the success of your aesthetic clinic or medspa. Yet many clinics struggle with high turnover of staff.
In this episode, we talk about how Dr Jegasothy recruits good people, and some special measures she has in place to keep them motivated and loyal.

Born in Sri Lanka and raised in Pennsylvania, Dr Jegasothy follows in the footsteps of parents and grandparents who were all physicians.
