Wiring Your Brain for Performance Under Pressure | ER Physician, Dr. Dan Dworkis

Wiring Your Brain for Performance Under Pressure | ER Physician, Dr. Dan Dworkis

This week’s conversation is with Dr. Dan Dworkis, an attending emergency physician and professor at USC’s Keck School of Medicine, where he works at the Los Angeles County+USC Medical Center (one of the largest and busiest emergency departments in the country).

Before that, he did his training with the Brigham and Women’s Hospital / Massachusetts General Hospital Harvard Affiliated Emergency Medicine Residency.

ER doctors or not, we all face emergencies in our lives– times when we are called on to make a decision to act, or not act – with skill to meet the demands of the moment – whether that’s in an environment of uncertainty, pressure, or even intimacy.

Dan believes deeply that all of us can improve how we function under pressure and in doing so perform at our best when we are needed the most.

He’s the founder of The Emergency Mind project which helps individuals and teams perform better under pressure both in and out of the emergency department – and that sets the tone for this conversation.
