Episode Synopsis

Forget everything you thought you knew about learning. It’s not just something you figure out in school, it’s a science. And Dave Tucker, founder and CEO of Genio, has built an entire organisation around that truth.In this episode, Tanya and Gordon dive into the messy, brilliant, deeply human side of learning. From the classroom moments that convinced Dave he “wasn’t a maths kid” to the entrepreneurial leaps that proved he absolutely was, this conversation unpacks how environment, confidence, and culture shape what we believe we’re capable of and how Genio is rewriting the rules so every learner can thrive.Expect insights on creativity, systems, failure, resilience, and the communities that make big ideas possible.What you’ll learn:· Why early learning experiences define confidence more than ability· How bad teaching can make smart people feel stupid and how good teaching flips the script· Why entrepreneurship is 50% courage, 50% falling on your face and trying again· How Genio scaled from one idea to a multi-product learning platform· Why cracking new markets always comes down to people, networks, and culture· The role community plays in building both confidence and capability· Why every learner deserves tools designed for their needs not the system’sIf you’ve ever questioned your own learning abilities, wondered how education could evolve, or wanted an honest look at the entrepreneurial grind behind a purpose-led tech company, this episode is your roadmap.https://www.linkedin.com/in/dntucker/ https://genio.co/ https://www.climb-uk.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/clim...Instagram: @Climb__UKX: @Climb_UK Bluesky: @climb-uk.bsky.social
