Where this comes from

Abstract

Coaching is separate from mentoring, and can include life coaching, skills coaching, and behavior coaching. Life coaching can focus on purpose, work-life balance, well-being, and career path. Skills coaching encourages mastery and promotes autonomy. Behavior coaching may be mandated for a disruptive surgeon. Coaching has been shown to reduce burnout and promote well-being and can potentially advance a surgeon's career trajectory and leadership skills.
