Foundations over Fixes: Changing Culture, Structure & Wellness in Residency

Date: Thursday, October 15, 2026

Time: 12:00 – 1:00pm EST

Webinar Description:

Join us for a focused webinar exploring how structural, cultural, and organizational factors fuel burnout in GME—and how we can reimagine them. We’ll cover breaking cultural momentum, using recognition and purpose, and designing proactive systems that support transitions and resilience.

Webinar Objectives:

• Differentiate individual wellness from organizational wellness and explain how workload, culture, leadership, communication, and available resources can influence resident well-being.
• Apply the Five Foundations of Organizational Wellness—Clarity, Psychological Safety, Recognition, Purpose, and Responsiveness—to identify organizational conditions that may contribute to resident stress or burnout.
• Recognize how organizational culture develops and maintains momentum and identify situations in which established assumptions, workarounds, or norms may need to be challenged to support meaningful change.
• Identify predictable periods of increased resident vulnerability and describe proactive organizational approaches that can strengthen support before stress becomes a performance, wellness, or patient-safety concern.
