Dwarfism Activist, Author & Motivational Speaker
Brandon Farbstein Biography
Brandon Farbstein is a professional speaker, author and Gen Z trailblazer whose work sits at the intersection of leadership, connection, and human transformation. With a global footprint and a distinctive lived perspective, Farbstein equips audiences with a deeper understanding of difference — and a practical roadmap for building the bridges teams and communities desperately need today.
Born with an extremely rare form of dwarfism, Farbstein turned early experiences with stigma, bullying, and exclusion into a lifelong mission to expand empathy at scale. By the age of 18, he helped pass two laws in Virginia on bullying prevention and emotional intelligence education, signaling the emergence of a powerful new voice in social change. His authenticity and clarity have since made him a sought-after speaker for high-impact organizations worldwide, including the Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT), where he has spoken to thousands of leaders across more than 80 countries.
Farbstein’s influence extends across industries. From advising Fortune 100 executives to empowering students and communities, he delivers tools that strengthen communication, deepen belonging, and elevate leadership performance. His books — Ten Feet Tall and A Kids Book About Self-Love (republished globally by Penguin Random House) — have inspired readers of all ages to lead with courage and compassion.
A Founding Partner of Daniel Lubetzky’s Builders Movement, Farbstein is a central voice in the effort to counteract division and foster connection in a fractured world. His work amplifies the lived experiences of the disability community, the largest minority group in the world, and drives broader understanding across differences. Farbstein’s thought leadership has earned recognition as a LinkedIn Top Voice and the Anti-Defamation League’s Hero Against Hate for his contributions to inclusion and cross-cultural dialogue.
Through his Ten Feet Tall framework and mission to Elevate Empathy®, Farbstein gives audiences more than inspiration. He offers a lens and a roadmap for leading with clarity, courage, and connection in a world that needs stronger bridge builders now more than ever.
