Journal Review in Surgical Education: Intersection of Leadership and Wellness in Education
Jun 16, 2022, 09:00 AM
The grind of surgical training has been celebrated in the past, but to what end? With mounting evidence that supports a high prevalence of burnout in the surgical community, surgical educators and leaders are often called to develop initiatives to address the detrimental and potentially irreversible effects on trainees’ wellness during surgical training. We invite Dr. David Rogers, who has personally experienced burnout, to share his insight and expertise in improving workplace wellness. Spoiler: it’s not as easy as group yoga sessions and daily donuts.
