As healthcare professionals, it's important to maintain strong relationships with our colleagues, patients, and staff. One key aspect of this is providing feedback in a gentle and effective manner.
When giving feedback, it's essential to share your perspective rather than dictating how things should be. This sets the stage for an open and non-defensive conversation, where both parties can express their thoughts and ideas.
In this particular situation, the individual being given feedback was receptive and open to the suggestions being offered. They acknowledged the importance of physician leader support in promoting positive relationships and making constructive feedback more effective.
By fostering an open communication and collaboration environment, we can empower our physician leaders to support our managers and create a positive and productive work environment.
