About Brian Gorman
Since first trying to convince Syracuse University to change its mascot from that of a Native American stereotype, the common thread in my journey has been change. At the personal level, I have gone from an introverted Eagle Scout as a college freshman, to a public speaker (including TEDx), author, podcast host, and podcast guest. At the organizational level I have been a change catalyst, consultant, and leader working with everything from startups to century-old global companies. At the social level, I have been an AIDS activist and LBGTQ+ rights activist, and volunteer with an organization that works to help heal child sexual abuse. My commitment is to share everything I know about moving through change with everyone I can in every way I know how even as I continue to learn and grow myself. Brians socials:
