La frustration est une expérience émotionnelle négative très courante au travail dans un environnement client qui peut survenir dans diverses circonstances, généralement présentes lorsque nos objectifs sont bloqués, que l’on a un certain degré d’incertitude sur les causes du problème, que l’on pense que cette situation est injuste, et que l’on ne peut pas contrôler les choses. Ce qui se passe une fois que l’on se sent frustré, c’est que l’on peut soit « laisser tomber », soit persévérer, et ce que l’on fait en termes d’actions à entreprendre peut dépendre de facteurs personnels et environnementaux.

Professionals tend to strongly resist breaking from their professions’ core cultural tenets and it is unclear how some may voluntarily break from deeply ingrained views. Through our study of French anesthesiologists who practice hypnosis, we aim to better understand this little-explored phenomenon. Adopting hypnosis, a technique that many anesthesiologists consider subjective, contradicted a core tenet of their profession: the need to only use techniques validated by rigorous scientific-based research. Drawing on interviews and observations, we analyze how these anesthesiologists were able to change their views and reinvent their work. We find that turning inward to oneself (focusing on their own direct experiences of clients) and turning outward to clients (relying on relations with clients) played critical roles in anesthesiologists’ ability to shift their views and adopt hypnosis. Through this process, these anesthesiologists embarked on a voluntary internal transformation, or reboot, whereby they profoundly reassessed their work, onboarded people in adjacent professions to accept their own reinvention, and countered isolation from their peers.
