What does it really mean to be a professional — and what happens when professions fall short? David Goldman, JD, challenges us to reflect on the ethical responsibilities that come with influence, authority, and trust. Drawing lessons from history and the present day, the talk calls on health professionals to reject victimhood, confront uncomfortable truths, and embrace accountability.
Key themes include:
Why adopting a “victim narrative” undermines responsibility and imagination
The concept of Spielraum — finding creative “wiggle room” to exercise agency and integrity
How influence and power can and must be used to advocate for patients and fairness in health care
What history teaches us about the ordinary motivations that can lead professionals astray
Why complacency and complicity are never acceptable alternatives to responsibility
