How doctors can think like CEOs

Cardiologist Stanley Liu discusses his article "The business lesson new doctors must unlearn." Stanley explains why the habits of being a "good soldier" during residency—such as accepting excessive workloads, never questioning compensation, and suppressing dissatisfaction—can harm physicians as they transition into attending roles. He discusses the importance of reframing one's professional identity from soldier to CEO, emphasizing the need to establish win-win professional relationships, protect valuable clients, and avoid restrictive contracts. Stanley highlights practical strategies for preventing burnout, maximizing career options, and treating medical practice as a personal business. Listeners will learn how adopting this mindset shift can create resilience, financial independence, and long-term career satisfaction.
