Far fewer learn how to become leaders.</p><p>In this episode of <i>The Second Shift</i>, I sit down with <b>Dr. Mike Fraser</b>, CEO of the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP), to explore one of the most important career transitions professionals ever make: the shift from individual achievement to developing others.</p><p>Mike shares lessons from leading national physician organizations, building high-performing teams, and helping professionals navigate career transitions. Along the way, we discuss why relationships matter more than résumés, how to create a culture of ownership, why emergency physicians are uniquely suited for second careers, and how our definition of a wealthy life evolves over time.</p><p>Whether you're leading a team, considering your next career chapter, or simply trying to build a life of greater purpose, this conversation offers practical wisdom that extends far beyond medicine.</p><h3>In this episode:</h3><ul><li>Why great leaders build people—not just teams</li><li>The difference between management and leadership</li><li>How relationships shape career opportunities</li><li>Lessons on burnout, career longevity, and second shifts</li><li>Why defining "enough" creates freedom</li><li>How legacy ultimately becomes more important than achievement</li></ul>
