Trumpism Is Increasing Person-Directed Violence Nationwide

Donald Trump's behavior appears to be having the unintended consequence of making all types of violence acceptable. In many places including Los Angeles, arrests and prosecution of a range of violent behaviors have increased during Trumps campaign.

Here is a list of some of the alarming increases in Los Angeles:

1). Family Violence

2). Spousal Abuse, http://www.usnews.com/news/blogs/data-mine/2015/10/09/sobering-stats-for-domestic-violence-awareness-month

3). Child Abuse

4). Bullying, https://nobullying.com/bullying-statistics/

5). Road Rage, http://www.freep.com/story/news/nation/2016/07/14/most-drivers-admit-aggressive-behavior-road-rage/87070368/

6). Fighting among grade school students.

7). Hate Crimes, http://billmoyers.com/story/donald-trump-escalation-hate/

Shelters for victims of Domestic violence, Afterschool Programs, Probation, Parole as well as Departments of Children and Family Services along with Batterers' Intervention Programs and Anger Management Facilitators are confirming increases in their referrals.

Pros And Cons Of Individual vs. Corporate Coaching Niches

During my nine years as an Executive Coach, I quickly learned that there is considerable value in selecting a coaching niche that is useful to an industry as well key professionals in that industry.  If you provide generic executive coaching, you will need to develop a brand that is widely recognized across industries. For example, leadership coaching can be generic or industry based.

An alternative is to carefully select an industry such as University Faculty, Law Firms or “disruptive physicians’ and brand your model for that population. If your intervention is exceptional or evidenced based, over time, organizations will most likely serve as a constant source of referrals to your practice of new leaders or leaders whose behavior at work may risk career derailment.

If you develop expertise in leadership coaching in general, it may be difficult for stakeholders in the shipping/stevedore industry to believe that you know enough about the culture of their organization and the services offered to be useful in coaching executives in that industry.

In 2006, I was asked by the CEO of a Major Hospital Chain to write a coaching curriculum consistent with the 2007 Joint Commission On The Accreditation of Health Care Organizations Sentinel Alert on “disruptive physicians”. Research conducted for the Joint Commission indicates that 3% of U.S. Physicians per year need to complete coaching for “disruptive behavior”. This means that coaching for this population is likely to continue over time. One of our Corporate Healthcare Organizational clients has 17,000 physicians in California alone. This number represents an incredible source of ongoing referrals.

Physicians do not become physicians in order to lead others. Rarely does a physician pursue medicine to become a leader. Rather, they are first and foremost committed to saving lives as well as patient care. There is little that physician leadership shares with manufacturing, high tech, engineering or hospitality. Successful physician coaches must understand the culture of Healthcare Organizations. In addition, it is helpful to understand the work that is done be each specialty in medicine. The stressors associated with being a surgeon are far different than those of a pathologist.

Both the corporation/industry as well as the client will likely feel more comfortable with coaches who are knowledgeable and experienced in coaching colleagues from their industry.  Persons trained in Executive Coaching without experience in a particular industry are at a clear disadvantage.

For the coach, when marketing to corporations, the need to market your services are dramatically reduced as the organization is more likely to encourage leaders and  “disruptive physicians” to consider coaching for skills in interpersonal relationship, empathy, mentoring and other Emotional Intelligence competencies.

In Summary, if you specialize in a narrow coaching niche that is needed and wanted by organizations and persons with the ability to pay, your chances of success will be dramatically increased. Mandatory Civility Training/Coaching is now required for Attorneys in many states. Coaches who offer coaching in this niche are in demand and are receiving referrals from law firms as well as State Bar Associations and licensing boards.

How I Developed A Lucrative Coaching Niche For Physicians

I wish that I could say that I followed the suggested strategies for establishing a coaching niche. However, I was actually invited by a national Hospital Chain to develop a unique skill enhancement coaching program for “disruptive physicians”. At the time this offer was made (2006) I did not know what a “disruptive physician” meant.

The physician who contacted me explained that the Joint Commission on The Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations was planning to issue a new mandate for physicians who exhibit problems at work in anger management/impulse control. This was to be announced in 2007.

His organization wanted to be pro-active in finding an intervention that was designed to address the problem while gaining buy-in from the physicians.

The specific requests given for this curriculum were:

·      The model developed would have to be consistent with the Joint Commission Requirements relative to “disruptive physicians”.

·      The model developed would have to be non-pathological. This means that it could not include psychological assessments nor counseling or psychotherapy.

·      Evidence based Pre and Post Assessments were necessary.

·      The coaching services would have to be available on-sight anywhere in the U.S.

·      To the extent possible, live, phone and Skype should be utilized.

·      Week-end sessions must be available.

·      Confidentiality must be crucial.

·      Finally, I was given advice and consultation from a committee of physicians most of whom are surgeons. Their goal was to assist in assuring that the model developed would be acceptable to mandated physicians.

Here are some of the recommendations from the experts on how to find your coaching niche and how I used them to my advantage in developing this new niche:

·      Q: What are your other qualifications:

·      A: I was informed that the Healthcare organization in question was aware of my work in Emotional Intelligence and Anger Management Coaching. In addition, my experience as a former faculty at UCLA Neuropsychiatric Institute was considered important. I began my professional career as a Psychotherapist with a specialty in Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy. I previously owned a large Psychiatric Clinic.

·      Q: Can the niche be profitable?

A: I was aware that this niche would be profitable based on the population served. Healthcare is inflation proof.

·      Q: Do you have a passion for working with this population?

A: Based on my own Post Graduate Training at Harvard University School of Medicine plus my teaching and Clinical Supervision at UCLA, I was aware of the joy of working with physicians who are excellent students.

·      Q: Is this niche needed?

A: In the process developing this coaching program, I learned that 3% of physicians each year exhibit “disruptive behavior” at work. This means that the need for services will not likely end soon.

·      Q: Is this niche underserved?

A: In 2006, there were only two major providers for this client population. One was the PACE Program at the University of California at San Diego and the Distressed Physician Program at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine.

·      Q: Is there a precedent for this niche?

·      A: The existing programs are not for profit. The services are not individualized and there were no Pre or Post Assessments nor client workbooks used.

·      Q: Will you be the first to select this niche?

A: My coaching model was the first to offer individual coaching on-site as opposed to classes that are actually Continuing Medical Education Courses (CME). These courses are traditional academically based training offered in a group setting at the respective Medical Schools listed above.

·      Q: Can clients in this niche afford to pay for the services you offer?  

A: Physicians can afford to pay for these services. Many Healthcare organizations are willing to pay for their doctors as a gesture of support.

·      Q: Are the prospective clients in this niche in the same professional group?

A: This mandate is nationwide and is limited to physicians.

·      Q: Can you find these potential clients?

·      A: It is not necessary to find them. It is best that their Healthcare Organizations as well as Medical Societies are familiar with your work.

Q: Is the niche's need for your services short-term or enduring?

         A: It is likely to be long termed.

In order to succeed in Executive Coaching, it is necessary to distinguish your coaching model from others. In selecting a niche, it is essential to determine a coaching niche that is needed and wanted by a population of potential clients who have the ability to pay. It goes without saying that you must demonstrate your competence in the selected niche.
