The Balanced Physician coaching programs use the most effective tools to help our clients make significant improvements and progress in a short period of time.
Our clients can choose from a variety of formats:
Individual Coaching:
This is the most effective and time-efficient program for busy physicians and physician leaders who want to see rapid progress. In regularly scheduled coaching conversations we identify their situation, set effective goals and work on a success strategy. Every situation is unique and the program is customized to our clients' needs and time schedule.
Team Coaching:
While a lot of emphasis may be given to individual coaching, the benefits of coaching a whole team are often overlooked.
From our experience we know that individual coaching will deliver significant benefits to the person being coached, and these benefits lead to increased levels of engagement and performance. These results can be multiplied when everyone in a team is coached. After all, business results and excellent patient care are achieved by the team and the quality of interactions and relationships in the team. Coaching a team enhances the interactions within the team.
Group Coaching
Group coaching is beneficial for individuals who want to:
- benefit from the collective wisdom and experience created by a group
- experience coaching in a group environment
- benefit from a more affordable coaching rate
- ensure accountability to move from good to great in many areas of their life
And for companies which want to:
- enhance their ROI on their training initiatives
- ensure that learning sticks from a recent retreat or training initiative
- "keep the learning alive" and momentum from a recent retreat or staff training program
- have more than just the C-level experience the benefits of coaching
- foster sharing of experience between staff members
Shadow Coaching Services:
Are beneficial for physician leaders who operate in a high paced, rapidly changing environment. Shadow Coaching is an in-person, observational coaching modality which supports clients right now, in the moment.
The coach shadows the client for intensive periods (typically a day or more), providing lazer coaching just-in-time and in the environment you operate within. This approach enables clients to acquire insights and implement meaningful change right away.
Workshops in Combination with Individual Coaching
The Balanced Physician program has 2 major components (self-management skills and interpersonal skills) which are divided into 12 skills.
You can engage us and the program for an entire year in your practice / organization where we present the skills and background knowledge in a 1-hour seminar each month and we work with the participants in individual coaching session on implementing and customizing the skills to their needs.
After all, a specific study by the International Personnel Management Association compared the success of training alone with training plus coaching. It revealed that training alone increases productivity by 22.4% while training reinforced with coaching increases productivity by 88%.
