Abstract
Physicians continue to feel immense pressure in their healthcare roles. Technologies are changing the patient-physician interface, patients and families are demanding flawless care, new models of care are encroaching on the traditional roles of “trusted” physicians. Perhaps a convergence of our professionalism is now competing with an inherent need to improve the stewardship of our industry. As physician leaders, we must learn to appreciate the genesis of these influences while also learning how to influence their outcomes.
