"Culture is Contagious" with Peggy Eserkaln

When good leaders use powerful, positive attitudes and actions to promote healthy community building, that "vibe" is contagious and spreads. Peggy Eserkaln talks about how, as an educator and improvisational performer, she helps establish a school or workplace culture that encourages creativity, respect, and positive mental health. Peggy is a Founder of Educational Improvisation, an award-winning educator, author, speaker, entertainer, and mom with a Master's Degree and a professionally-trained funny bone. Peggy can be contacted at [email protected]. Her book, "Sydney Owns a School," can be ordered on Amazon. The State of Wisconsin's Dose of Reality campaign is at Dose of Reality: Opioids in Wisconsin. More information about the federal response to the ongoing opiate crisis can be found at One Pill Can Kill.
