About this listen
In this episode, Jodi and Josué examine how various personality types function in medicine. Josué asks, “Can you be a good doctor if you're not a people person?” They share their insights on working effectively with colleagues and patients in both clinical and leadership roles. Jodi, an extrovert, reflects on her experiences as both a patient and caregiver, observing both positive and negative doctor behaviors. They discuss the art of medicine and the value of “soft skills,” including interpersonal abilities and leadership development. The conversation also distinguishes between being kind and being nice. Josué, an introvert, recounts how he improved his interpersonal skills during residency. They address the challenge of engaging with patients in limited time, such as during brief rounds, and how being absorbed in personal or professional stresses can sometimes seem aloof.
