Dr. Brian Goldman Biography
Dr. Goldman examines healthcare’s embrace of a new teamwork model that has been noticed by people outside the medical world in his latest book and speaking topic, "The Power of Teamwork." He draws on groundbreaking research to demonstrate how a team approach to medicine, and the power of kindness, can improve all aspects of the industry…and beyond.
Fortune 500 companies and other organizations are learning that running a busy emergency room in high pressure situations provides valuable insight that can help anyone who leads or is part of a team, to be more effective. For organizations, he’s taking the lessons he’s learned as an emergency room doctor and translated them into skills we can all benefit from: risk management, learning from mistakes, having empathy, the power of kindness, and the power of teamwork.
In the high stakes and complex setting of healthcare, a new approach to teamwork is leading to healthier patients, happier staff, and more efficient operations.
Healthcare’s embrace of a new teamwork model has been noticed by people outside the medical world. Doctors are going outside the walls of the hospital to teach manufacturers, business owners, franchisees, customer service representatives, and even those in sports and entertainment to do better by shifting the culture from “me” to “we.”
Dr. Goldman’s style on stage is earnest, heartfelt and sincere. On stage it becomes clear that he has a passion for compassion. Dr. Goldman makes complex medical issues digestible for audiences. He personalizes medicine and the human frailties of his profession. He is unafraid to address tough or controversial issues head on in a comprehensive way, including the challenges brought by COVID-19.
Dr. Goldman is one of those rare individuals with great success in not one but several adrenaline-pumping careers. He is a highly regarded emergency physician at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto. A veteran medical broadcaster, he is also the host of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation’s award-winning radio show “White Coat, Black Art”, where he takes listeners behind the scenes of hospitals and doctor’s offices. Dr. Goldman unpacks and demystifies what goes on inside medicine’s sliding doors – with topics that include burnout among health professionals, racism in health care and meeting the challenge of providing care for kids with complex medical needs when they age out of the system.
His inspiring yet bracingly honest TEDx talk about medical errors—which has been viewed on the Internet almost one million times—has cemented his reputation as one of his generation’s keenest observers of the culture of modern medicine.
A bestselling author of the book "The Night Shift: Real Life in the ER," Dr. Goldman takes readers through giddying heights and crashing lows as he works through a typical night shift in one of Canada’s busiest ERs. His second book "The Secret Language of Doctors" is a biting look at medical slang, and what it reveals of what the doctor really thinks about your mother’s obesity, your grandfather’s dementia or her colleague’s competence.
And, he’s not afraid to take a hard look at himself. In his book – "The Power of Kindness: Why Empathy is Essential in Everyday Life" – Goldman searches for his own capacity for caring around the world, through his own brain circuitry and inside his heart.

Dr. Brian Goldman Speaking Topics
In the high-pressure and complex setting of healthcare, a new approach to teamwork is leading to healthier patients, happier staff and more efficient operations. Healthcare’s embrace of a new teamwork model has been noticed by people outside the medical world, so doctors are going outside the walls of the hospital to teach manufacturers, business owners, franchisees, customer service representatives and even those in sports and entertainment to do better by shifting the culture from “me” to “we.”
Based on his latest book and drawing on groundbreaking research and examples from around the world, Dr. Goldman shows the audience how a team approach to medicine can improve customer service and help women break the glass ceiling. It can solidify the provision of social services to troubled youth, and boost the efficiency and safety of the military and critical industrial complexes like nuclear power plants. It can even make professional sports teams perform better.
The pandemic has put the healthcare system under extreme stress. Postponed surgeries will be challenging to reschedule. The burden of untreated or under-treated cancer, heart disease and mental health conditions is likely to be with us for years to come. But even now, during COVID19, the healthcare system has begun to transform itself in ways until recently not thought possible. As a front line ED physician and medical broadcaster, Dr. Brian Goldman has seen this up close.
In this presentation, he will share examples of disruptive innovation for the better that have taken place during the pandemic as well as those yet to come.
Twenty-first century healthcare uses cutting-edge technology, while record-keeping and information technology are primitive. Medical professionals often handwrite their notes and require patients to use a phone to book appointments. Can disruptive innovation modernize our healthcare system? Dr. Goldman argues that there is a need for a shake-up in healthcare computing, providing examples of apps that are both improving patient care and saving health professionals time. By having patients and healthcare providers use their mobile devices, we can reduce unnecessary wait times and optimize processes.
Key Takeaways:
- Using the hackathon approach, how even the most technophobe doctors and nurses can team up with up-and-coming software engineers to invent cutting-edge medical apps.
- How to reduce unnecessary wait times by optimizing processes through mobile devices.
- The structures needed to free up more time away from services and re-allocate it towards thinking & developing strategies for innovation.
Powerful and engaging, this presentation takes audiences away from the theatre of medicine and into the world at large, investigating why kindness is essential to our well-being. Dr. Goldman shares personal anecdotes from his quest to expand his own sense of empathy, as discussed in his recent book. Audiences will also hear some captivating and moving stories from around the planet, showing the secrets to success of the most empathic people alive.
In order to make healthcare safer for patients, it’s critical to have more whistleblowers. Some people regard Edward Snowden as a hero for exposing government wrongdoing, while others believe he is threatening national security. Surprisingly, whistleblowers are quite unusual in healthcare. Using excerpts of interviews from his radio program White Coat, Black Art, Dr. Goldman explores the need for whistleblowers in the sector and examines why there are so few of them. He cites examples of hospital whistleblowers and what happened to them when they spoke up. He points to the United Kingdom as a shining example of a country that is making healthcare safer by turning whistleblowing into a virtue. This could be a powerful model for health systems in North America.
