Uncovering the secrets to success and understanding successful people. 

This is a series of interviews with successful people, the idea is to ask them all the same NLP -based questions to uncover the hidden strategies and techniques successful people use in their lives… Albeit many times unconsciously.

What is success? 

How can we be more successful? 

What do successful people do that’s different to other people? 

Let’s find out in “My Success Full” Interview with Nicki Rowland. Nicki Rowland is the founder of Practices Made Perfect, a practice management consultancy and training organisation. She also runs The Exceptional Leadership. Nicki has lived and breathed practice management since opening her dental practice in Yorkshire in 2006.
