Leadership isn’t just a title, it’s a mindset physicians need to embrace to shape the future of healthcare. In this episode, Dr. MinhTri Nguyen explains how physicians can leverage their inherent skills to become great leaders. From filling leadership voids in high-stakes moments like a code to mastering emotional intelligence in the exam room and beyond, Dr. Nguyen shares actionable insights on adapting, delegating, and inspiring teams. He also explores why physicians must reclaim leadership roles to drive meaningful change in healthcare, offering practical advice for doctors at any career stage.

Three Actionable Takeaways:

1. Fill the Leadership Void: Step up in moments of uncertainty, like during a code, and adapt until a more experienced leader arrives—physicians are trained to act decisively.
2. Master Emotional Intelligence: Recognize and manage your emotions and those of others to build trust, improve patient outcomes, and reduce burnout.
3. Delegate to Amplify Efficiency: Use leadership skills to delegate effectively, freeing up time for patient care or personal life while empowering your team.
