Residency Coaching Program
Coaching for Success
Established in 2016, the BUMC IM Residency Coaching Program is committed to the success of each individual resident. In addition to their adviser and mentors, residents are assigned a faculty coach that is selected and trained to support the resident throughout their training. Coaches work with residents to establish and achieve professional development goals, maintain their well being, and truly personalize their training experience.
Dr. Asher Tulsky, Director of Resident Development, takes meticulous care to match each resident with a coach outside of their intended career path, whose sole priority is the resident’s learning and development. This enables coaches to give open, honest and constructive feedback, and residents to freely communicate and work on professional improvement goals.
