#128- Tenfold Ambition - Martin Wanendeya

We have the unpleasant smell of the farmyard to thank that Martin Wanendeya didn’t follow his early dream of becoming a vet.   But the animals’ loss is dentistry’s gain: Since graduating from Bristol in 1995, Martin’s gone on to found one of the most recognised brands in dentistry and build a name as one of the most skilled implantologists in practice today.   This week, Martin chats to Payman and Prav about his early days in Uganda, the shift in mindset it takes to become a leader in the field and how he came to set up the legendary Ten Dental with business partner Nikhil Sisodia.   Enjoy!    “Of course, there was fear…But sometimes if you have good fear, it's going to make you work harder, plan better, prepare more, do all that stuff so that at the time you open, you've done everything you can. And hopefully, it will then be a success.”   Martin Wanendeya In This Episode 01.38 - Backstory 16.16 - The dentistry decision 19.15 - Dental school 24.34 - Boarding school 28.01 - Early work, mentors and first implants 31.37 - Into private practice 34.14 - Meeting Nikhil Sisodia 37.00 - Shopfronts and squats 39.14 - Marketing 42.10 - Ownership and mindset shifts 52.22 - Partnerships 01.00.56 - Practice expansion 01.05.12 - Super associates 01.09.16 - Mastering implants 01.11.45 - On race 01.16.00 - Black box thinking 01.25.09 - Reputation and exclusivity 01.31.41 - What it takes to reach the top 01.37.01 - Referrals and relationships 01.41.06 - Last days and legacy 01.43.54 - Fantasy dinner party About Martin Wanendeya Martin graduated from Bristol University in 1995.
