ASP Retreat I
Mission Possible: A clear personal and professional vision, defined core values, and a compelling mission are required for success.
During this three-day retreat, you will disconnect from everyday busyness and connect with other doctors and spouses/so's attending. We will further assess where you are today, identify if this is really where you are meant to be, explore your biography, and clarify what your best destiny really is...if it were the best it can be.
“We cannot control the future; however, ASP allows you to get into creative cooperation with your best possible future.”
We will start with an overview of principle-centered, values-based Applied Strategic Planning (ASP). By learning the powerful ASP process, you will create a clear and inspiring vision of your best possible future, personally and professionally. We will assist you in crafting a functional personal mission and set of guiding core values. Plus, you will immediately begin to draft meaningful, attainable goals and objectives.
As a huge added benefit, you will increase your understanding of your partner’s hopes and dreams for their own and your shared future. Plus, you will learn principles of Steward leadership for you and Stewardship for your team—forging greater ownership and a more rewarding practice for all. The insightful information gained in this retreat and your new direction prepare you for Retreat II.

What Participants are Saying
Your insights have helped shepherd me on my "journey" to a practice of continual excellence. Your Strategic Planning Series was outstanding in providing tools to create and attain the vision that I have had in the back of my mind for several years.
As I think back on your ASP Series that I was involved with several years ago, I realize it was the beginning of a process that has allowed me to grow in the direction of my dreams. The thought progression and introspection gained through the series allowed me to clarify what I actually wanted in my journey. The methods you taught have proven invaluable not only in my practice, but other aspects of my life as well. I am thankful for your mentoring and friendship in my continuing pursuit of growth.

Dr.Robert Frazer facilitated a day and a half program on "The Art and Science of Designing Your Future: From Vision to Reality" for the Greater Chesapeake Study Club, which is a Seattle Study Club. The program was truly excellent and well received by all of the participants. Dr. Frazer provided a wonderful opportunity for introspection and assisted the participants in developing personal vision and mission statements for all aspects of their lives. He guided the group in developing meaningful goals, objectives, and integrated action plans. He is a deep thinker and was able to fully engage our members throughout the process. He is very energetic, an excellent presenter, and a great motivator. The feedback has been outstanding and the program was rated as one of our very best. W.

The Applied Strategic Planning experience was way beyond my expectations! A new vision for our practice's future ...that I helped create has had an incredible impact on me (and our entire team) personally and professionally. You gave us so many tools to carry back to the office to rectify problems, attain goals and for follow through. A big positive impact was to connect with other offices throughout the country ...this program attracts the best! There was never a moment during the retreats that I lost interest. I didn't want the last retreat to end! I hung on every single word that was said by Bob and Irene. You are both truly a blessing in my life! Thanks from the bottom of my heart.

I want to personally thank you for all the work you have put into making the ASP process a success for our 13 doctor group. We could not have gone through this without your guidance, hands-on care and enthusiasm. My only regret is that I will not be with you as frequently as during this past year. My hope is to get with you at other courses and activities you offer to continue to grow both my leadership and our friendship. I look forward to our future experiences together.

Bob, I can't thank you enough for inviting me to be a part of the National Study Club. Is there anything better than a group of highly accomplished dentists sharing their best ideas and experiences, forming close friendships and bringing solutions to optimize our lives and our practices? Yes! It's being guided by one who is widely regarded as one of the great leaders of modern dentistry. Thank you for being that leader! I owe so much of my success to you and the NSC.

"We have used R.L. Frazer & Associates for numerous strategic planning and emotional intelligence training projects with our operating companies through the years. At one point we had 3 different operating businesses and R.L. Frazer worked with all 3 companies. Each one of these businesses had their own unique size, scope, and market challenges. In each instance, the process we used could account for those differences and help us achieve a future of choice. We started using his firm in 2008 with one of our businesses, New Earth. New Earth became the largest organic composting business in the state of Texas using the framework of Applied Strategic Planning that Bob and firm teaches. I would highly recommend him and his team in this capacity."
