Tap into the “secret sauce.” The “secret sauce” in the recipe to being a great ward attending consists of love: “not a somatic love, but a visceral love for your system, for your people,” Dr. Wiese said. “To make the great attending, only the great attending could be great because of love. Do all the things that would be consistent with an attending not somatically, but viscerally loving their team. Do those things again and again and you’ll find your way to that emotion. If you find yourself there, the rest of this is details. That’s what differentiates the good attending from the great attending.”

Dr. Wiese reported having no financial disclosures.
