Mark Goulston John Ullmen Biography & Facts
Mark Goulston (born February 21, 1948) was an American psychiatrist, executive coach and consultant who had worked with Fortune 500 companies, universities, and other organizations. He was the inventor and developer of the process called Surgical Empathy whereby using targeted and focused empathy, one is able to break through to people and free them from internal emotional and psychological blocks that can impair their functioning, well-being and satisfaction in life. He died on December 30, 2023. Early life Goulston was born in Boston, MA, to Irving Goulston, who rose from bookkeeper to controller and CFO at United Liquors, and Ruth Goulston, who was a homemaker and shop owner. He skipped a grade and graduated early from Newton South High School. He attended the University of Vermont from 1965–66 and then transferred to the University of California, Berkeley, where he received his B.A. in 1969 with a major in Zoology. From there, he went on to a year of graduate school in Zoology at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst from 1969–1970 and then on to medical school at Boston University School of Medicine (BUSM), where he took two non-consecutive medical leaves of absence. He attributes this to untreated depression. During his second leave of absence, he took a three-month medical student elective at the Menninger Psychiatric Clinic in Topeka, Kansas, where he worked with schizophrenics. He learned that listening and empathy in addition to drugs and ECT were key to addressing even severe mental illness. He then returned to BUSM and completed his MD degree in 1976. Goulston completed an internship at Harbor General Hospital in Torrance, California, and his psychiatric residency at UCLA's Neuropsychiatric Institute under supervision and then mentorship of suicidologist Edwin Shneidman. He then became an assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at UCLA, where he served for over 20 years. Career Goulston started a private practice. It specialized in suicide, death, and dying, including making house calls, and working with families and couples. After doing psychiatric house calls to dying patients and their family members, he worked with surviving families and their businesses. That expanded to his being a consultant, speaker, trainer and coach to such organizations as IBM, Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, Xerox, Deutsche Bank, Hyatt, Accenture, AstraZeneca, British Airways, Sodexo, ESPN, Kodak, FedEx, YPO, YPOWPO India, Association for Corporate Growth, FBI, Los Angeles County District Attorney, White & Case, Seyfarth Shaw, UCLA Anderson School of Management, USC and Pepperdine University. He was interviewed, appeared in or and written for media outlets including: the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Fortune, Los Angeles Times, CNN, MSNBC, and HLN. He also co-hosted the Zo Williams Morning Radio Show. In 2016, he became a co-host on It's Your Health with his day entitled, "Dr. G and Lisa" carried on NPR and commercial radio stations. Goulston sat on the board of advisors at HealthCorps (Dr. Mehmet Oz's foundation) and American Women Veterans, and he was a Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association. He was also the Co-Founder, Co-Curator and Co-Guardian of Heartfelt Leadership. Goulston was co-developer of The Exam Performance Program (R), an eLearning course which teaches students how to be calm, confident and focused so they can perform better and score better on academic exams and standardized tests. The course has been developed to (I) improve student cognitive performance and test scores on academic exams and standardized tests, (II) improve student mindset, self-confidence, self-efficacy, motivation, engagement, retention and academic trajectory, (III) eliminate/prevent test-anxiety and "stereotype-threat", and (IV) motivate STEM achievement, especially in low-income/minority/female/foster-care student groups. In 2015, Goulston became Chief Mentor and a principal at China Foundations and in 2016 he became a principal and Board Advisor to the transdisciplinary consulting firm Alchemy. In 2015, Goulston founded and became CEO of the Goulston Group. Companies and organizations hired the Goulston Group when they want to significantly increase "buy in" and sustained engagement from customers/clients, investors and talent they are hoping to attract. He extended his writing as a contributing writer for Business Journals.

In 2017, he began hosting the weekly Prison Letters with Dr. Mark Goulston podcast. In October 2017, Goulston ventured to Moscow to provide a one-day training for Best Business Ideas to 400+ CEO's, managers from the Russian Federation and HR directors on the topic of his book, "Just Listen," whose Russian edition was, "I Hear You Through and Through". Related to that visit, Goulston was interviewed by the Russian business publication, RBC, in an article entitled, Managers Hate the Word "People" which resulted in a record 455,000 views. In October 2018, Goulston began hosting the "My Wakeup Call" weekly podcast where he interviews influencers about what matters most to them and there journey and personal wakeup calls to arriving at that commitment.
