Dave is an ER doctor, a former astronaut and Director of Life Sciences for NASA, and currently the CEO of Southlake Regional Health Centre. In 1998, he became the seventh Canadian in space and in 2007 set a Canadian record for most spacewalks during a mission aboard the International Space Station. (Considering how much time he's spent in space, he's surprisingly down-to-earth!)
Given his leadership in these dynamic and high pressure roles, Dave has plenty of firsthand experience with change and risk management. He understands how to build consensus and respect between those you work with and those who work for you. Whether constructing a space station or strengthening the health care system, Dave knows it takes a team of people working together creatively, with common purpose, to truly make a difference.
We look forward to learning from his experiences and leaving his presentation inspired to reach for the stars.
