Episode Details

In this episode of Global Economic Press, Alex Brady discusses a significant leadership transition within the Dental Office Managers Association of Canada. The organization, which plays a crucial role in supporting dental office administrators and managers across the nation, has appointed Monica Trimble as the new Executive Director. Monica succeeds Alex Zlatin, who has been instrumental in the Association's development and is stepping back to focus on his work with Mint Ops. Monica brings over 15 years of experience in dental office operations and has been a dedicated volunteer with the Association since its inception. Her firsthand experience in addressing operational challenges and advocating for the professional representation of dental office managers positions her well to lead the organization into its next chapter.

As Executive Director, Monica Trimble aims to advance professional standards for dental office administrators and managers through updated certification examinations and nationally consistent expectations. Her leadership will focus on strengthening certification as a benchmark of knowledge and professionalism within Canadian dental offices. The Association plans to continue developing certification pathways, modernizing competency-based examinations, and accrediting dental office management programs. These initiatives, along with webinars, events, and networking opportunities, will support ongoing professional development for members. An in-person event is also planned for September 2026 to foster learning and connection among dental office administrators, managers, and dental teams.
