Emotional Intelligence is free of stigma

Mandating a Physician to complete an Emotional Intelligence Coaching Program is easier than getting a child to eat ice cream. Few physicians are comfortable being mandated to do anything. Therefore, Physician HR Managers, Chiefs and Credential Committees experience considerable difficulty getting physicians to attend mandated intervention for “disruptive behavior/anger management”. A more effective alternative that appeals to physicians is Emotional Intelligence Coaching for impulse control. Emotional intelligence is defined as, “a set of emotional and social skills that influence the way we perceive and express ourselves, develop and maintain social relationships, cope with challenges, and use emotional information in an effective and meaningful way. ”–MHS. It is the on-line assessment that sells the value of EI coaching. The EQ-i-2.0 includes fifteen scales designed to increase a persons’ ability to recognize and manage his or her feelings as well as the feelings of others. EI coaching is customized to increase the competencies in which the physician scores in the deficit range. Emotional intelligence is rapidly becoming the most popular intervention offered to health care workers as well as persons in leadership positions.

My Tips for coaching success in 2020:

My first suggestion is to make your linked in profile ALL STAR. My second suggestion is to select a niche that is needed and wanted by persons who have the ability to pay. My third suggestion is to master your niche and post content daily on linked in. My last suggestion is to incorporate Emotional Intelligence into your practice niche.

Over the last two weeks, I have been reading the profiles of potential connections

Here are some of the things that I have learned: 1). Many/most profiles do not clearly inform the reader of the providers niche. 2). Frequently, there is a disconnect between what is claimed in the first lines of the profile and the related training or experience. i.e, if you list Ph.D. after your name the date and institution of the degree granting school should be listed. 3). It appears that many coaches and marketing consultants are attempting to function with only a cell phone and passion. Upscale clients are smart enough to determine a credible provider from an opportunistic. I have done good and well by consistently offering the best products in the niches that I post on daily. I am happy to share my stragegies with any of my connections.

Emotional Intelligence is needed in Substance Abuse Treatment

1). Skill enhancement in impulse control, self-awareness, social awareness and relationship management along with motivation are neglected competencies in substance abuse treatment programs. 2). Research using the widely respected EQ-i-2.0 Assessment have shown that substance abusers consistently score low in the above competencies in comparison to the general population. 3). Self-control/Anger Management is now and has always been pervasive among persons with addictive disorders. 4). The Los Angeles Anger Management Facilitator Certification Training on Jan. 16, 17, with George Anderson will address these issues.

Anderson & Anderson, APC is the leading provider of Emotional Intelligence Coaching for “disruptive Physicians”

Marketing experts assert that the most effective marketing strategy for service businesses is to consistently provide excellent services. Competence almost automatically leads to word of mouth marketing from satisfied customers. Anderson & Anderson has taken the word of mouth to mouth marketing concept to a new high in the area of Executive Coaching/Emotional Intelligence for Disruptive Physicians.

If you enter the keywords: anger management for physicians, emotional intelligence for “disruptive physicians”, or leadership coaching for physicians, Anderson & Anderson will come up 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 actually psychiatric treatment centers for mentally impaired physicians.

The Anderson & Anderson Executive Coaching/Anger Management for Disruptive Physicians program was originally developed at the request of Dr. Willie Williams, who was an administrator at Tenet Health Care of Dallas at the time. 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 was to focus 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 the areas of: emotional intelligence, assertive communication, empathy, self-awareness, self-control, social awareness and relationship management. The comprehensive, validated assessment instruments determine the participants’ level of functioning in all of the areas mentioned above. Subsequent coaching concentrates on the areas in which the client scores in the deficit or average range.

In recognition of the busy schedules of physicians, our services are available either at our Los Angeles office, or on-site anywhere in the nation. The program is twelve hours over a two-day period, followed by phone contacts bi-monthly with post-tests over a six-month period. In contrast to University based programs Continuing Medical Education, our intervention is offered on a confidential individual basis. Services are provided on-site anywhere in the U .S. or at our Brentwood/Los Angeles Office.

What would you like to learn from an Emotional Intelligence Assessment

A variation on the practice of giving back to the community.

In 1982, Anderson & Anderson, APC owned the largest privately owned Psychiatic Clinic in the U.S. Rather than offices and staff in each location, we used a network of mental health contractors to provide services under our umbrella. We provided were a Field Work Placement for UCLA for Clinical Social Work Students. My nephew, Phillp Black reccommended that we offer business internships to UCLA Business Students. This was one of the best business ideas that we embraced for many years. Our first student was actually from the Wharton School of Business who learned of the Internship opportunity from his father who was on the faculty at UCLA School of Medicine. This student is responsible for getting Google to disignate George Anderson as The Anger Guru. One year, we selected an Intern from the USC Film School. This Intern actually produced three quality videos on our work in Anger Management. I reccommend that other psychotherapists, coaches and service providers consider offering Internships to students who may benefit from the experience that you may offer.
