As Vice Chair for Education with Brown, Dr. Clyne develops and supports programs across the continuum of learners. This continuum spans undergraduates to faculty. Learn more about Dr. Clyne. 

In addition to all his insight on working with colleagues, coaches and mentors, he has some rock solid and practical advice on listening. This advice comes towards the end of our interview today. With that in mind, please make sure to listen all the way though until the end—you won’t be disappointed!

While Dr. Clyne admits that coaching is not a panacea for every issue we encounter, it does come with some major wellness benefits.

“[Coaching] can help you become more aware of your responses and reactions to certain situations and because of that I think it helps fight burnout amount healthcare providers,” he said.
