HI in the Age of AI: The Leadership Skill Dentistry Isn't Talking About Yet

Everyone is talking about AI. Marni Blythe wants to talk about the part no algorithm can replace: the humans.

In this episode of Growing Your Dental Business, host Jacquelyn Hurley sits down with keynote speaker, bestselling author, and Fractional COO Marni Blythe for a conversation about human intelligence, or HI, in the age of AI. Marni makes the case that as software takes over verification, diagnostics, and pattern-finding, the practices that pull ahead will be the ones that invest in self-awareness, communication, and culture.

You'll hear why the skills that make someone an exceptional clinician are not the same skills that make them an exceptional leader, how a growth mindset separates practices that transform from ones that stay stuck, and Marni's practical framework for building a business like a house, starting with the foundation of core values, mission, and niche.

It's a warm, honest, and genuinely useful conversation about leading from within, because people feel your presence before they feel your dentistry.

In this episode, you'll discover:

✔️ What "human intelligence" means, and dentistry's next blue ocean

✔️ Why AI brings data, but only humans bring discernment and connection

✔️ The gap between being a great clinician and being a great leader

✔️ Marni's house-building framework: values, mission, and niche as the foundation

✔️ Becoming the "minister of culture" in your practice, and where to start: self-awareness
