Survey on voices in the #MedEd (coaching) conversation – Kori LaDonna (@Kori_LaDonna)

https://med.uottawa.ca/department-innovation/people/ladonna-kori

Kori co-authored the 2019 paper on coaching with Watling, so it will be interesting where she fits into the conversation. Her bio says that she’s interested in non-technical skills training, the role of patients as educators and assessors – these are both up my alley!

What she’s been saying

https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=en&user=8B_oxpkAAAAJ&view_op=list_works&sortby=pubdate
  • medical error (How medical error shapes physicians’ perceptions of learning: an exploratory study)
  • coaching (Where philosophy meets culture: exploring how coaches conceptualise their roles)
  • teams (Navigating complexity in team‐based clinical settings; ‘Who is on your health‐care team?’Asking individuals with heart failure about care team membership and roles; Adaptive practices in heart failure care teams: implications for patient-centered care in the context of complexity; The Palliative” Conversations” Within Advanced Heart Failure Teams: Experiences, Omissions, and Consequences)
  • failure (Shifting and sharing: academic physicians’ strategies for navigating underperformance and failure; One Hundred and Eighty Degrees: Using Consultants’ Experiences to Help Learners’ Develop Insight into Underperformance and Failure)
  • self-assessment (“Rising to the level of your incompetence”: what physicians’ self-assessment of their performance reveals about the imposter syndrome in medicine)
  • meaningful feedback and difficult conversations (In search of meaningful feedback conversations; Navigating difficult conversations: the role of self‐monitoring and reflection‐in‐action)
  • uncertainty/complexity/emotional responses to situations (‘Oh my God, I can’t handle this!’: trainees’ emotional responses to complex situations)
  • patient experiences (lots of pall care/dying qual research)

So what?

  • it looks like Kori is just moving into the coaching literature.
  • her values of patient experiences/empowerment look to be aligned with my own

Now what?

  • coaching definitely looks like the conversation that I want to join. I now need to reshape my research question and bring coaching into it
