About
Stephen Trzeciak was at the top of his game as a research scientist until an unexpected question from his 12-year-old son transformed his life's work. "What is the most pressing problem of our time...do we really know? And what would happen if we actually did?" In this talk, Trzeciak discusses the erosion of compassion in healthcare and how we can integrate his "compassionomics" methodology into our everyday lives to increase happiness and fulfillment.
