- Entrepreneurship
On today’s podcast I am joined by someone who has influenced my business life more than he probably realises! I first met Michael Smith back in 2011 when he was Director of Sales for Align and I was really pushing my Invisalign journey forward. We very quickly realised we ‘got each other’ and Michael’s belief and support with my idea to launch an Invisalign only clinic is something I am eternally grateful for!
He further supported my vision to launch the MiSmile Network and his business advice and mentorship over the years has been invaluable.
Although Michael doesn’t work for Align now, we regularly keep in touch and I’m excited to see where today’s discussion takes us.
Topics:
And how’s life out on the West Coast of the US?
So can you take us back to the beginning of your career - how did you end up in the medical device industry?
And tell me about your roles at Align - you must have seen some incredible innovation over the years?
You’re now CCO at Sonendo - tell us a little bit about the company, and your view on the role of technology in dentistry.
The future of dentistry - what’s next?
What’s the best bit of advice you’ve been given during your career?
Any memorable people you’ve worked with or come across that have influenced your journey?
I know you’re part of the 5am club - what motivates you to get out of bed in the morning?
How do you manage your work-life balance, and do you have any advice for people who may be struggling to find that balance?
What are your interests outside of work?
