Speaker: Dr. Myron Rolle education, sport and medicine, Dr. Rolle’s career has taken him from the football field to the front lines, as he
currently works and volunteers to aid the hospital in the fight against the COVID-19 global pandemic.
The 2% Way is a mantra that Dr. Rolle lives by, which was instilled in him by his former coach at Florida
State, Mickey Andrews. This belief permeates every aspect of his life — from practicing medicine to raising his
family to encounters with friends or strangers to running his foundation — as he seeks 2% daily improvement
in everything he does. Dr. Rolle will walk the audience through the highs and lows of this football and medical
journey, which started in the Bahamas, to present day at Mass General Hospital/Harvard Medical School, all
hoping viewers can take 2% of his message an apply it to some aspect of their lives.
