The Resilient Physician:

The Resilient Physician:
Leading and Thriving Through Change
Physician burnout rates have never been higher. And the quality and safety consequences of compromised physician wellness have been well-documented. Why do some physicians falter in the face of change while others thrive? Clinical psychologist and organizational consultant Wayne Sotile has devoted his career to answering this question.

This session provides physicians with an engaging and compassionate "leadership and resilience check-up." Participants gain insights from structured self-assessments, guided discussions, and description of evidence-based tactics and strategies that differentiate physicians who thrive through change from those who flounder in disillusionment and burnout.

Wayne's evidence-based strategies for promoting physician engagement and resilience stem from his work with the American Medical Association as a consultant on physician wellness; his 35 years serving as a therapist to physicians and their families; his pioneering work in physician leadership development; his consulting experiences with leading healthcare organizations and medical practices throughout the country; and his own landmark research on physician burnout, career satisfaction, and medical family life.

As the co-author of landmark research on physician burnout and medical family life (most recently published in the 2012-13 peer-reviewed literature), and of the classics -- The Resilient Physician and The Medical Marriage -- Wayne is recognized as a pioneering, international thought leader on physician and medical family resilience. This presentation captures both the minds and hearts of even the most cynical of physicians and shows why aligning passionately with one's organization is a key to individual, medical family, and career satisfaction.

The Thriving Medical Family:

The Thriving Medical Family:
New Challenges; New Solutions
More than ever before, contemporary physicians and their loved ones report that they feel under-appreciated by their communities.

This presentation offers a much-needed balm to this malady. It is the perfect "gift" to your medical staff and their loved ones; one that has helped countless health systems deepen physicians' and medical families' alignment with each other and with their organizations. With compassion and humor, clinical psychologist Wayne Sotile shares practical insights from his more than 35 years of work as a counselor to and student of medical families of all forms; from his book The Medical Marriage (considered the classic publication in the field); and from his landmark 2013 research study of medical families. Wayne has translated his lifetime work with physicians and medical families into a toolkit of practical, evidence-based strategies that distinguish those resilient medical families who manage to have it all: productive careers, medical community engagement, and thriving personal/family lives.

Presented with exquisite respect of cultural diversity, this program has touched the hearts of tens of thousands of physicians and medical families of all forms throughout the country. This is the perfect celebration of physicians and the people they love and work with.

Thriving Through Change

Thriving Through Change
Choosing Resilience
Every healthcare system today faces unrelenting change, and mismanaged change fatigue is leading to an epidemic of costly burnout across health professions. An antidote to this cycle is now available. Clinical psychologist Wayne M. Sotile elucidates evidence-based tactics and strategies for managing the "psychological underbelly" of coping with change and deepening resilience – that ability to get through hard times and emerge stronger for having had the experience. With humor, compassion, and clarity, Wayne walks audiences through a microcosm of the resilience-boosting process he and his team have used for more than 30 years with busy healthcare professionals. Along the way, he shares key finding from his own cutting-edge, peer-reviewed research on burnout, career satisfaction, and work/life balance among healthcare professionals; findings that audiences universally find to be surprising and motivating. [For example: Number of hours worked is not the main predictor of burnout. And the key to resolving work/life "balance" angst typically has nothing to do with working less; it's all about engaging more fully while at work, and returning home in a positive mood.]

Wayne's presentations combine inspiring case vignettes, thought-provoking self-assessments, and pointed descriptions of what does and does not rejuvenate resilience -- all delivered with a mixture of just the right amounts of his South Louisiana humor and compelling stories that galvanize key points. The result is one of the most unique, highly rated presentations across healthcare today.

Getting the Best Out of People

Getting the Best Out of People
Overcoming "Yea, Not Really" and Other Barriers to Continuous Improvement
A vital part of any healthcare leader's role is to bring out the best in people. Doing so requires driving accountability while helping others to get beyond psychological barriers that interfere with passionate engagement in meaningful work. Unfortunately, the more stressful the work challenges, the more likely are leaders to ignore the evidence-based fundamentals that promote and sustain high-passion individual and team engagement.

In this session, clinical psychologist Wayne Sotile, author of Letting Go of What's Holding You Back, teaches practical applications of the broad fields of motivational psychology, performance management, and leadership resilience. Drawing material from his 35 years of experience as a change agent in his work with individuals, families, teams, and healthcare organizations, Wayne charms and challenges audience members, and shows them how they can move beyond whatever might be holding them back from the personal " best" -- whatever that best might be. Wayne's work in this area was described this way by one physician audience member: "Wayne Sotile could motivate a stick to change." Either as a keynote or extended workshop, this presentation will provide participants with a toolkit of skills for better understanding and motivating others while enjoying themselves in the process.
