In this episode of the University of Applied Research & Development Educator’s Podcast, #20, we hear from Dr Clyde H Lewis Jnr. Dr Clyde operates a mentoring programme for underserved groups, enabling educational success. The initiative draws upon Dr Clydes doctoral research and educational leadership experiences. Dr Clyde shared brave advice for helping students develop the necessary skills and attitudes for future success, “failing forward, to enable me to coach people through controlled, planned failure”.
