Abstract

The practice of coaching using positive psychology is an emerging and promising approach to address the radiologist burnout epidemic, with the focus on wellness even more urgent given the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic and other recent stressful events. Coaching uses a strengths-based approach to help radiologists identify and achieve positive emotions, create meaningful relationships, increase engagement and purpose, and develop coping skills for personal and professional stressors, including communication, improving resilience, team building, and mindfulness. Health and wellness coaching promotes healthy behavior change as a means of averting or mitigating chronic lifestyle-related diseases and is a potential treatment for burnout and stress management. Coaches help clients enhance self-motivation, identify strengths, and implement a framework for change by applying psychological resources, including mindfulness, positive mind-set, resilience, self-efficacy, and self-awareness. The framework of coaching is built upon psychological safety, mindfulness, accountability, and the coach-client relationship. Coaches use the three fundamental skills of mindful listening, open-ended inquiry, and perceptive reflections to empower clients on their journeys to achieve their best selves.
