The Impact of Leadership Training on Burnout and Fulfillment Among Direct Reports
The results of this study suggest that incorporating leadership training into residency programs may serve as an appropriate initial intervention to improve the leadership skills of supervising residents, and in turn, improve professional fulfillment and retention among medical professionals. This intervention involved minimal cost and time investment, with potentially significant returns in combating the well-being and attrition crisis. These findings may be applicable across the healthcare field to tackle the impending healthcare worker crisis.
