Optimizing Professional Growth with Career Coaching

What is the difference between mentorship, sponsorship, and coaching in a physician’s career, and how can coaching influence your professional development? On this episode of BackTable Urology, Dr. Helen Bernie interviews Dr. Emilie Johnson and Dr. Angie Smith about the transformative impact of career coaching for urologists. They break down how coaching differs from mentorship and sponsorship, who stands to benefit most, and the real value of having a conversation focused entirely on your goals and growth.

This podcast was developed in collaboration with Society of Women in Urology.
