Faculty Coaching Series
Faculty Coaching Series
How can faculty use coaching skills to develop residents more effectively?
This nine-part series explores practical ways to integrate coaching into graduate medical education — from understanding the difference between physician and faculty coaching to building skills like safe space, deep listening, partnering for progress, and accountability.
As part of broader faculty development in medical education, the series also examines coaching versus mentoring in residency training and how those approaches shape growth, reflection, and feedback.
Whether you’re new to coaching or looking to refine your approach, each post includes real-world applications drawn from academic medicine and residency education.
We also explore the comparison and contrast (and seeing the overlap between) physician coaching and the use of coaching skills by faculty.
