In today’s encore episode, I am sharing an excerpt from an earlier episode discussing myths
about physician leadership and dispelling those myths with evidence.
MYTH: a widely held but false belief or idea
Time to bust some of the myths and stereotypes about physicians being arrogant, un-herdable
cats and lone wolves who don't understand teamwork, business or finances.
Stereotype…
#1 Doctors are lone wolves or cowboys who can’t get along on a team
#2 Physicians have a command and control decision-making style
#3 Physicians are lousy at managing their money
#4 Docs are greedy and are primarily motivated by money
#5 Physicians are not suited to lead and not capable of running the business
Find out why the stereotypes are not only wrong but are harmful to physicians, staff and
patients. Stereotypes make leadership roles look unappealing to physicians, allow
administrators to wave off concerns by physicians, permit apathy about the need for vigilant
recruiting and selection, and permit avoidance by administrators of tough behavioral issues.
