How can we use failure as a powerful learning experience? In this introspective talk, Dr. Pat Hymel shares a story from his years as an emergency medicine resident and how he's applied that lesson as an entrepreneur and CEO.

Pat Hymel, MD, is an entrepreneur-physician intently focused on patient safety issues. Pat's devotion is to ensure technology improves patient outcomes without disrupting the clinician-patient relationship. His current venture is MedSnap ID, a mobile medication technology.

TEDxBirmingham 2014 - "Rediscover the Magic" - was held on March 1, 2014 at UAB's Alys Stephens Center in Birmingham, Alabama. 15 speakers plus several artistic performers spread their ideas with cross-disciplinary mix of attendees from the Magic City, ranging from civic and business leaders to professionals, educators, technologists, and artists. TEDxBirmingham -- like all TEDx events -- is an independent, volunteer effort. It is not organized for political reasons, monetary reward, or personal gain. Everyone associated with TEDxBirmingham does so because they believe in the power of ideas to change the world.

This TEDxBirmingham talk is shared with you by the Birmingham Business Journal.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
