    AbstractSurgeons are famously decisive, assertive, and confident. Unfortunately, we also often have a reputation for being blunt, harsh, and unprofessional.

Unprofessional behaviors should be prevented, but equally importantly, so should the stressors that drive them. This is critically important for the future of our profession.Copyright © 2022 by the American College of Surgeons. Published by Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. All rights reserved.
