Being your best self brings significance to their life and to those around them. Be significant! They grow every dayThe Dream Team grows every day. We are committed to improving our health and our patient’s health. We all learn something new every day. We are a better version of ourselves this week than last week. They own their actionsWe work together so we each own the problem, act on the problem, so the problem does not own us. Our patients tend to meet us when they are having health issues. They may feel out of control and/or overwhelmed due to not knowing what the problem is. The saying of ‘the greatest fear is the fear of the unknown’ is a true concern. They are Committed to movement in a purposeful directionThis is the definition of Conation. The team says “Just Do It”. Our team greatly desire to achieve their Ideal Lifestyle; where they have the time, money and significance they desire. This includes accomplishment of both their articulated and unarticulated health and life goals. They’re eager to achieve those goals, understanding that it requires a thoughtful investment of time, collaboration, and capital. They Do More Than Expected.The Dream Team does more than expected of them. They don’t stop at only their narrow job description. They always help others including Dream Team members and patients. LoveLove always seeks the long-term best interest of the one being loved. The Dream Team expresses love daily. We have the definition prominently posted so all can see in the office. We desire to focus on those things in life that are most important to them, such as family, health, spirituality, and an active lifestyle. Love always works in the long term to be your best self. The team works as a catalyst. WWJDThe Dream Team is a group of like-minded motivated adults working together. They use common values in the decision-making process. At DSC we think What Would Jesus Do (WWJD) in this situation? We also use our decision matrix and ask the following: Is it good for the Company? 2) Is it good for the Team? 3) Is it good for the Patients? and 4) Is it good for the Vendors? When we run our problem/dilemma through this thought process, we come up with the best solution.They are committed to excellence, but excellence is a moving target. Our team desires excellence in their lives. Life changes rapidly and they will adapt.They Understand and Appreciate TimeThis is the great equalizer. Everyone has the same number of hours available per week. You get what you intend, not what you hope for.Take the agreed upon plan and ‘just do it’. If you hope it will change without taking action, it won’t change.Who are you?If you are looking for a box within which you will find a clear list of tasks to perform while you are “at work”, please do not apply – we don’t see life that way. If you enjoy meaningful work, that focuses on RESULTS not activity, then we might be a good fit. This is a position for someone who wants to make meaning, not just money, and have an ongoing impact in the lives of the people they encounter. This person doesn’t have a need to draw attention to themselves, but they probably will, simply because they enjoy being so outgoing. They can’t help themselves; they are always paying attention to the needs of others. They look around a filled room, see the one person who is new, and walk right over to engage them, make them feel comfortable, and introduce them to others.They are infectiously positive, which is very different than getting excited about shiny objects or chasing squirrels. They are not easily distracted by a constant stream of “new things”, but are very focused on seeing what they can do to help people get from where they are, to where they want to be. Sincerity is their hallmark, and it comes out in a sincere interest in others, not in mushy emotionalism (although being emotional about seeing others is fine – a hug is a great thing). We truly believe in the following by Zig Ziglar – “If you help enough other people get to their goals, you will get to yours.”The person for this position lives and thinks in a world of abundance (how can I help make you successful), not in a world of scarcity (there is only so much to go around, so I better get mine before I help you get yours.) You might be a good fit if:1) You are looking for a company where you will make a significant impact for a very long time as an important and equal team member, not as a simple “worker”.2) You are highly proactive and highly detail oriented, 3) You like a fluid, expanding organization that is small, but growing rapidly 4) You enjoy meaningful work, a focus on RESULTS, detailed administrative work that you have to manage yourself, working very closely with other Stakeholders (people who are highly committed) and completely on your own from the office with no one watching you, and if 5) You enjoy helping us all figure out how to get thereResponsibilities Include: 1) Living out our Vision statement – “Better Lives Through Great Sleep” You don’t just work here, you get out of bed and come to work because you want to help increase the overall happiness of our community by providing excellent customer service and care. You have to take on this vision and make it your own like everyone at our company. It’s not a nice statement on a wall, but a way we live at work and at home. If you don’t believe that Better Lives Through Great Sleep, this is not the place for you.2) Live out our Mission statement – ““We help people thrive through great sleep” while building lasting relationships with our customers. We are not just a one and done company. Building lasting relationships with our customers is a main priority for us. You will help mentor and support each of your patients through the diagnosis and treatment of their sleep disorder. 3) The mindset of an “owner”. This isn’t just an “office assistant position”. We don’t have “office managers or “front desk people”. We just have Stakeholders, and no matter what your role is with us, you’re as much a part of what we do as anyone else. You need to have that mindset – you are an incredibly valuable part of our team and our customers will get to know you and lean on you to help them.4) The mindset of an adult – We’re not looking for someone who needs to be told what to do, when to show up, what time recess is, and when they need to go home. We’re looking for someone who is a self-managed, self-motivated adult who knows what RESULT we want, and enjoys taking the bull by the horns to get it done, without being watched, managed or directed.. We all work together in community to get things done, and we need someone who will join us as an equal team member, not as an “underling” or employee/child.5) Setting the right atmosphere in the room, making it inviting - THIS IS A CRITICAL PART OF YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES.

You will also help to make them feel comfortable and notice all the little things that nobody else would normally notice, that could possibly make an experience great, or not so great, for all of our customers.6) Hosting and welcoming people – in general, we want you to think of yourself as being “the face of Dream Sleep Center” to our customers and clients. They will never see you as a “room setup person” or a “refreshments person”, but as the face of our company, a resource for them, someone they can go to in order to find out what would best serve them. At many of our customer encounters there will be people who have never met anyone at our company, and you’ll play an important part in spotting them, making them feel welcome, and connecting them to others in the company. We want to be known for having the most welcoming atmosphere in town, and you will play a big part in creating and sustaining that atmosphere.7) Performing a range of simple to sometimes complex office work (entering customer info, sending/receiving important information, keeping schedules for appointments, keeping detailed records and notes, scribing medical documentation during patient visits, updating, adding/deleting/changing, printing, collating, assembling, etc.)8) Working with word documents, spreadsheets, eCW EMR, GoogleDocs, Etc.9) Social Media – understanding how to develop our presence on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+, Instagram and other social media.10) Behind the scenes – Maintaining the cleanliness of the office, calling and arranging appointments, stocking and ordering supplies, coordinating appointments, keeping order in the office and in the patient records.

We want you to proactively look around and see how you can make things better.11) Learn what we do and make it your own –We don’t want you to just be in the room for appointments and greet people. You will set up the room and the atmosphere, but you will enjoy being there because you love helping people and you find the field fascinating. 12) Hours – 40 hours+/week with opportunity for incentives based on performance.

Starting pay is around +/- $15-20/hour.14) Acting as if you own the company – (taking initiative and ownership, making decisions, thinking ahead and being proactive (we don’t need “reactive”), working with others to constantly make our work better and deliver outstanding service every day.You will be an integral part of the Dream Sleep Center c
