Mohammad Elashi, Founder of Synaptic Pediatric Therapies and Co-Founder of Dynamic | Synaptic Solar, didn't mean to get into business. During college he quickly realized that becoming a medical professional himself may not be the path, especially as he sat through anatomy class . However, he discovered that there are other ways to serve in this industry which began his path to starting his first pediatric rehab facility. Now that the practice has grown to 9 locations in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, his determination and mission to make a difference is continuing to gain momentum. Mohammad shares that what holds back many aspiring entrepreneurs is simply not getting started. Ideas after ideas is not the path to building something meaningful, but instead, putting one foot in front of the other is where you really learn about yourself, your clients and your business. Being young and inexperienced can be a super power, which allows you to take on problems boldly. Mohammad talks about the first pediatric office he ever opened up, getting a lease despite not having a bank history or credit and looking for used furniture to get things going. Throughout this endeavor he decided to prioritize treating the patients and his Team with utmost respect, in hopes that it would keep his business alive. That not only turned out to be the competitive advantage, but what continues to sustain his ventures in other industries like Solar. Mohammad believes that if you build a great culture based on investing in Leadership, empowering others and making work a great place to be, then your customers will naturally be taken great care of. Investing in Leadership has become a hallmark of how Mohammad and his partners run their businesses. Leaders in their organization are measured on how well they develop others, not their personal skills. Building a Team requires humility and focus, which in turn echos to your customers. With his sights on the future, they will continue to invest in their Team and push on to new heights.
