BALANCING LIFE AND WORK
Presentation Description
Over the past 20 years, many studies have documented the pervasiveness, symptoms, and root causes of physician dissatisfaction and burnout. Despite these studies, professional burnout continues to grow at an alarming rate, with one out of two practicing physicians and trainees describing at least one symptom of burnout in a 2015 Burnout Survey reported in the December 2015 issue of the Proceedings of the Mayo Clinic. Physicians are typically better at taking care of their patients than they are of taking care of themselves.
In this 50-minute presentation Dr. Moskowitz will discuss the crisis of physician dissatisfaction, the growing problem of physician burnout, and life coaching solutions which can restore work-life balance, make physicians more resilient to the stress in their lives, and restore the joy of clinical practice.
Work-Life balance is the best insulator against the ravages of stress and burnout, yet is often an elusive goal. Dr. Moskowitz will provide practical tools for daily use, and discuss in detail specific strategies to improve balance in each of the six Domains of Balance.
RENEWING YOUR CAREER: CAREER COACHING SOLUTIONS
Workshop Description
Profound changes in the American healthcare enterprise are impacting physicians as never before. Increasing career dissatisfaction, burnout, disruptive behavior, medical errors, medical malpractice, and premature retirement from practice are major indicators of the severity of this crisis.
Because of their personalities and training, physicians are often poorly prepared to cope with the rapidly increasing stresses of practice or the need to proactively manage their careers. Training programs rarely address the topics of strategic career planning, physician wellness, or strategies for work-life balance. Yet within the scope of these topics are the seeds with which to insulate practicing physicians and trainees from the growing storm.
This 2-hour career renewal workshop will discuss the principles of personal, career and professional renewal. The content is highly interactive, engages physicians at all career stages, and will emphasize both didactic and experiential learning. The curriculum provides practical information, roadmaps, and tools, which will empower you. Every registrant will leave the workshop with an individualized life and career plan for the next chapter of your life.
