Surgeon's narcissism, hostility, stress, bullying, meaning in life and work environment: a two-centered analysis.
Disruptive behavior in the healthcare setting can result in neglect of patient care, decreased teamwork, and poor safety culture. This study from the UK found that 22% of surgeons were at risk of displaying disruptive behavior in the workplace and that being bullied during surgical training predicted hostility. These results reinforce the need for strong safety culture and a supportive learning environment for trainees.
