Doctors Who Coach Doctors Terms of Reference

Setting the right tone and expectations for this community is essential to ensure that we create a supportive and rewarding environment for all members. This group is dedicated to bringing together doctors who are passionate about coaching their colleagues and fostering personal and professional growth within the medical community.

Our vision is to create a space where Doctors who formally coach other Doctors can come together to share insights, knowledge and experiences related to coaching. By facilitating open discussions and providing a platform for learning and development, we seek to elevate the quality, recognition and reputation of coaching practice amongst medical professionals and the broader community. We aim to support and elevate the interests and undertakings of members of the group.

Membership:

Should you wish to recommend someone to the group, please direct them to fill in the application on this site and to contact Tabitha Healey - tabitha@doctorswhocoachdoctors.net or Ira van der Steenstraten - ira@doctorswhocoachdoctors.net so that these TOR may be shared, their details collected and their suitability assessed.

Members of this community shall have undertaken some form of accredited coach training and be actively (or on the cusp of) formally coaching other doctors, although this does not need to be the entirety of their coaching practice. We recognise that many doctors coach colleagues in the course of their paid medical positions, this group is focused on Doctors who formally coach outside of their clinical practice. Members must have completed medical training but do not require ongoing AHPRA registration.

Group guidelines:

Respect and Professionalism: We value respectful communication and professional conduct at all times. Please treat each other with courtesy, understanding, and empathy, even in moments of disagreement.

Focus on Coaching: This group is dedicated to discussions related to coaching in the medical field. Please keep your contributions relevant to this topic to maintain the group's focus.

Share and learn: Feel free to share your experiences, best practices, success stories, and challenges related to coaching other doctors. Engage in constructive discussions that encourage learning and growth.

Confidentiality: While we encourage open dialogue, please remember to protect client privacy and refrain from sharing any confidential information or sensitive client cases.

Self-promotion: Our group is not intended for self-promotion, job advertisements, or commercial activities. Any such content will be removed.

Engagement: The strength of our community lies in the active participation of its members. We encourage you to engage in discussions, ask questions, and support your fellow doctors in their coaching endeavours.
