Impact of Organizational Leadership on Physician Burnout and Satisfaction 

Physicians are increasingly employed by large health care organizations. Studies suggest that approximately 75% of US physicians are now employed by hospitals, academic medical centers, health maintenance organizations, and large practice groups. This represents a profound structural change from the solo practitioner and small group practice models in which most physicians previously functioned. This evolution in practice structure has created new challenges for physicians, requiring them to sacrifice some autonomy/flexibility, achieve productivity requirements set by the organization, and be accountable to organizational leadership. Read more...

Physician Leadership Coaching

Leadership Effectiveness

"Joy has helped me find my inner confidence  by many techniques stemming from where you sit, how you sit, tone of voice, and the content of what you say.  It allowed me to "take control" of a meeting and direct the meeting.  She actually came down and observed me in action, and offered valuable and practical feedback to allow me to be more effective."

Regional Emergency Department Medical Director
Physicians are used to thinking independently; acting quickly; identifying problems and being sought for their solutions and interventions. Physicians are being welcomed at the executive table yet find that the language that is being spoken is different from what they know well.  There are many opinions and more than one right answer.  How to navigate it all?

Evidence-Based Approach to Development

Empowered Physician Leaders combines the best of leadership development with leadership and physician coaching to help you achieve and sustain results:  results that support the best in patient care, healthcare delivery, quality, and growth.  Our model is similar to the medical model:  We start with assessments that help to identify strengths; risk of overdone strengths; Values that influence your actions; and 360 degree feedback processes that help you understand how you are perceived by those you need to influence.  

We know that you don't have time to tackle world hunger:  We will partner with you in creating a development plan that has targeted development in a few areas.  We support you in your practice of new leadership behaviors and provide a safe and confidential place for debriefing what worked and what didn't.  We WANT YOU TO FAIL.... because it means that you're going out of your comfort zone and learning more effective ways to communicate, collaborate, manage conflict, create accountability, and achieve results.
