Abstract
Background: Burnout impacts physicians at alarming rates; physician leaders are not immune. While burnout of physician leaders is associated with decreased leadership efficacy, physician coaching has been associated with reduced burnout.
Objective: This study aimed to assess the effect of a physician-leader specific coaching program on the components of burnout.
Methods: A 10-week Wellness Coaching Program for physician medical directors was conducted and burnout was measured pre and post intervention using the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey (MBI-GS).
Results: All subscales of the MBI-GS trended towards a decrease in the components of burnout with a statistically significant decrease in Cynicism.
Conclusion: Wellness coaching programs have the potential to positively impact the threat of burnout experienced by physician leaders in today's health care workforce.
