31. The Privilege of Teaching with Dr. Bob Margeas
Contrary to Ordinary, Exploring Extraordinary Personal Journeys
Today’s guest is Dr. Bob Margeas, a dental professional in Des Moines, Iowa, a professor of Operative Dentistry at the University of Iowa, and the Editor-in-Chief of Inside Dentistry.
Described as the “dentist’s dentist”, Bob has achieved so much in his field, but always embraces his failures, seeing them as a valuable learning opportunity. He sees teaching as a privilege - and never takes his position as an educator for granted. As he puts it -
“There are a lot of amazing people out there who never get the opportunity to speak, so you can never assume that the people speaking are the best.”
