👩🏻‍🏫 Lesson Media – Focus

It’s important to understand the many sides to a story and to empathize with the challenges that decision makers face. That’s why we talked with Kerry Bowman. He’s an ethicist who is the first call for complex, end-of-life decision-making. He’s a specialist in cross-cultural health care delivery. He’s an expert in genetics, genomics, cloning-animal ethics and emerging medical technologies. Oh, and in his off time, he travels to the depths of the Amazon and jungles of the Congo to help remote tribes deal with endangered species poaching. He’s even had to swim across lakes to cross borders in order to escape danger. Dr. Kerry Bowman is, quite simply, the most interesting man in the world. And he discusses why it’s important to empathize with others and focus on what really matters.
