Lord Michael Hastings CBE's words, 'Justin is an exceptional educationalist with the sharpest insights into learning, the highest level of emotional intelligence and an astute global perspective. He is a person of the highest integrity, and it is an honour to work with him'. In the podcast Justin shared his passion for empowering young people, they need to find you 'Who am I'; ' Why am I here'; and 'What is it I bring to the world'. Teachers need to prepare for a journey to discover the inner self; they must help young people prepare for uncertainty and give a perspective of human development to education.  When we address the challenges of learning and education, it must be people first and processes later. This alone will help us focus on building the skills and competencies that help people grow up with the right attitude and behaviour. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/learningforward/support
