Leveraging Physician Coaching to Improve Physician Performance, Patient Safety, Patient Outcomes and Provider Wellness

Tuesday, Dec. 14, 2021  |  1:00 p.m. CT (12:00 p.m. ET)

In many professions such as athletics, music, and business, we see coaching readily utilized as a tool for goal setting, growth, and career development. In healthcare, physicians are often on their own to learn the ropes of running a practice, while being expected to deliver the best patient care possible. For various reasons, physician coaching has yet to catch on in a field where rates of burnout are over 40% by many measures. This webinar will define physician coaching, provide examples of how coaching skills can be used in colleague and patient interactions, and discuss the benefits to the physician client and employer.

Objectives

  1. Understand what coaching is, explain what it is not, and learn best practices that lead to improved professional and personal development.
  2. Identify common leadership principles in coaching that enhance goal attainment and improve the coachee experience.
  3. Learn how to apply coaching principles in colleague and patient interactions that produce improved patient outcomes and provider experience.
