If you enter the keywords anger management, emotional intelligence for “disruptive physicians,” or leadership coaching for physicians, Anderson & Anderson will be number one in all search engines. We have earned our place at the top by being the first provider in the nation to develop a specific curriculum, with a non-psychiatric assessment component, client workbook, DVDs, posters, and ancillary training material designed exclusively for “disruptive physicians,” as defined by the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO). Other similar programs are either modified anger management classes for drug addicts or criminal court-mandated defendants; some programs are psychiatric treatment centers for mentally impaired physicians.
The Anderson & Anderson Executive Coaching/Anger Management for Disruptive Physicians program was initially developed at the request of Dr. Willie Williams, an administrator at Tenet Health Care of Dallas. The goal was to tailor a program specifically for “disruptive physicians, “excluding mandatory substance abuse or psychiatric assessment, which can prove damaging to a physician’s career. In addition, the program focused on skill enhancement rather than counseling or psychotherapy.
Therefore, the Anderson & Anderson curriculum is, in essence, a skill enhancement-based intervention model designed to enhance one’s skills in emotional intelligence, assertive communication, empathy, self-awareness, self-control, social awareness, and relationship management. The comprehensive, validated assessment instruments determine the participants’ functioning level in the abovementioned areas. Subsequent coaching concentrates on the areas where the client scores in the deficit or average range.
In recognition of physicians’ busy schedules, our services are available at our Los Angeles office or on-site anywhere nationwide. The program is twelve hours over two days, followed by phone contacts bi-monthly with post-tests over six months. In contrast to university-based programs in Continuing Medical Education, our intervention is offered on a confidential individual basis. We provide services virtually worldwide, on-site, anywhere in the U.S., or at our Brentwood/Los Angeles Office.
