Participation in a Resident-as-Teacher Rotation: Motivations of and Impacts on Faculty Coaches.

Faculty were initially motivated to participate as coaches in a resident-as-teacher rotation based on their identity as educators. The benefits achieved-improvement in own teaching, personal satisfaction, and increased connectedness-affirmed their educator identity and led to ongoing participation and increased well-being at work. These motivations and impacts are important to consider as future programs are developed and coaches are recruited for programs across undergraduate, graduate, and continuing medical education settings.
