To investigate the effect of formal leadership training of academic radiology leaders within an academic center on their own burnout and professional fulfillment.
The study cohort was academic radiology leaders within one of the largest academic organizations of academic radiologists within the United States. All academic radiology leaders within the organization were electronically mailed a weblink to a confidential IRB-approved survey in April 2021. The survey included validated questions from the Stanford Professional Fulfillment Index (PFI), values alignment, teamwork, overload, and work-family conflict. Academic leaders were invited in May 2021 to participate in instructor-led formal training on leading wellness focusing on 5 core leadership skills - emotional intelligence, self-care, resilience support, demonstrating care, and managing burnout. An identical follow-up survey was electronically mailed 6 months after initial training in November 2021.
The overall response rate of academic radiology leaders was 59% (19/32). For both measures, there was acceptable internal consistency (Cronbach's α = 0.63 for work exhaustion and α = 0.90 for fulfillment). There was a statistically significant improvement in work-family conflict (3.32 vs 2.86; p = 0.04). No statistically significant differences were identified for fulfillment, work exhaustion, alignment, work overload, and teamwork scores after training.
Formal instruction in leading wellness improved work-life conflict for academic radiology leaders. There was no significant change in burnout, fulfillment nor organizational alignment of the leaders.
Formal instruction in leading wellness raised awareness and improved work-life conflict in academic radiology leaders.
探讨学术中心内对放射学学术领导者进行正式领导力培训对其自身倦怠和专业成就感的影响。
研究队列为美国最大的学术放射学家组织之一的学术放射学领导者。该组织内的所有学术放射学领导者都通过电子邮件收到了 2021 年 4 月进行的一项机密 IRB 批准的调查的网络链接。该调查包括斯坦福职业成就感指数(PFI)、价值观一致、团队合作、工作过载和工作与家庭冲突的经过验证的问题。2021 年 5 月,邀请学术领导者参加以 5 项核心领导技能为重点的领导力健康促进的导师指导正式培训 - 情商、自我保健、韧性支持、体现关怀和管理倦怠。2021 年 11 月,在初次培训后 6 个月,以电子方式再次发送了相同的跟进调查。
学术放射学领导者的总体回复率为 59%(19/32)。对于这两个衡量标准,内部一致性都可以接受(工作倦怠的 Cronbach's α=0.63,成就感的 α=0.90)。工作家庭冲突方面有统计学上的显著改善(3.32 对 2.86;p=0.04)。培训后,成就感、工作倦怠、价值观一致、工作过载和团队合作评分均无统计学差异。
正式的领导健康培训改善了学术放射学领导者的工作生活冲突。领导者的倦怠、成就感和组织一致性均无明显变化。
正式的领导健康培训提高了学术放射学领导者的工作生活冲突意识,并改善了这一情况。
