We are continuing to unpack coaching skills for faculty. Two weeks ago, we covered how faculty taking a coaching approach differs from physician coaching. Last week, we walked through a coaching approach for faculty to consider when working with residents on their individualized learning plans (ILP). Today, I hope to offer you an overview of the coaching skills to incorporate as faculty and then dive into the first — Creating a Safe Space.
The great news is that most of you as...
As I end the physician coaching series to focus on faculty, I want to continue the conversation from last week about faculty taking a coaching approach in their roles. Today, I’ll touch on individualized learning plans (ILP).
The ACGME’s more recent standards for programs to train residents under a Competency-Based Medical Education model require that an ILP “should be formulated by the learner, include personal learning objectives, and identify...
When you read the literature around physician coaching in graduate medical education (GME), you will notice the word “coaching” is used in different contexts to convey different connotations. I want to conclude this blog series by comparing and contrasting (and seeing the overlap between) physician coaching and the use of coaching skills by faculty.
I was working on a Physician Coaching White Paper (coming soon) within the CHARM (Collaboration for Healing and...
As we close out the blog series What is Physician Coaching? I wanted to highlight the use of coaching in Graduated Medical Education (GME) - specifically coaching that focuses on the professional development and well-being of the resident.
First, I want to review a few important points to set the stage for this blog.
We have been in a series looking at various aspects of physician coaching. We started with the definition and moved on to the coach and coachee components, the tools and approaches, and the evidence for physician coaching. This week, I want to move the conversation to attempt to answer one of the most common questions I receive. “If I want to receive coach training, where would you recommend?” This will be an incomplete response but, hopefully, give you more understanding. I...
We are continuing our blog series, What is physician coaching? So far, we have covered the definition, discussed what the coach and the coachee bring to sessions, and the commonly used tools and approaches. This week we review some articles and evidence for physician coaching.
Dr. Atul Gawande, Harvard surgeon, author, and healthcare leader, was one of the earliest to experiment with coaching in healthcare. He published Personal Best in the New York Times in 2011. Initially,...
We are continuing our blog series, What is physician coaching? So far, we have covered the definition and discussed what both the coach and the coachee bring to the session. This week we will review commonly used tools and maybe unpack some of the various formats. I think now is a good time to mention that the term coaching in the coaching profession varies from that in academic coaching - but stay tuned, I'll talk more about GME Academic coaching tools in an...
We are in the middle of a blog series all about physician coaching. Last week, we reviewed the definition - what it is and what it’s not. Today, I want to unpack the components of what the coach and the coachees both bring to the session to optimize the power of coaching. In the coming weeks, we will review some of the coaching tools, the variations of coaching, the evidence around coaching in medicine, the ways it’s being utilized in graduate medical training, and the...
I’m starting a new blog series all about physician coaching. We will cover the basics of what physician coaching is and isn’t, what the coach and the coachees bring to the session, the tools, the evidence, coach training, and how it can be utilized in graduate medical training.
Today, I want to ensure we are all working off the same definition of professional coaching.
I always like to start with what it is NOT.
It is not advising.
It is not...
This week, we conclude our series of the three foundational ingredients that support physicians’ psychological health. We camped out on Autonomy for five weeks, then covered Relatedness last week. This week we focus on Competence.
I will be focusing on the individual’s proficiency in medicine. (I hope no one is disappointed that I will NOT be taking on the demonstration of competencies to specialty boards, governmental stakeholders, hospital organizations,...
