Rebel's Center of Creativity
Welcome to The Center of Creativity — the podcast by Rebel, a creative brand studio in the Rebellion Group, where creative minds collide to celebrate the art and chaos of our crafts in a world that seems to value them less and less. We dive deep into the business of creativity, from breaking into the industry and building careers to navigating the freelance hustle. But it’s not all business — we’re here to laugh, learn, and let loose with some drinks. Whether you’re an artist, designer, writer, or maker, this is your space to recharge, rethink, and rebel.

Episode 14: When Lives are at Stake: A Heart Surgeon’s Perspective on High-Performing Teams
Rebel Leadership happens in the most unexpected places. We convinced a heart surgeon — yup, you heard it right — to talk to us about the inner-workings of leadership in the complex heart surgery operating room where patients' lives are at stake. We have the honor of speaking with Dr. Igor Gosev, one of four cardiac surgeons at the University of Rochester Medical Center. He’s a key opinion leader for mechanical circulatory support — in other words, he performs and educates nationally on his innovative surgical techniques in heart surgery.
Amy Quinlan, a Nurse Practitioner with years of experience specializing in heart failure, elaborates on the magnificent team dynamics in heart surgery.
