Sh*t I Learned From My Divorce

Episode 4: Accountability: Where Has it Gone & How Do We Bring it Back? Part 2

Listen Later

Everyday another story of disrespect and abuse hits the news.
 

Abuse within families, abuse at the office and abuse within sport…there is no area of life that is left untouched. 

We know this behavior is wrong so why does it happen? What makes people behave this way?

 

In this episode, retired educator and leadership expert, George Zeigner and I continue where Part 1 left off. We further explore the thought that abusers are made, not born and delve into how one’s childhood shapes future behavior.

What are young people being exposed to?


What are they being taught about respect for others?


What type of behavior are they normalizing and celebrating?

 

George Zeigner is a retired educator and leadership expert 

who spent 43 years in the education business in a variety of 

teaching, coaching, administration and leadership roles. 

During his tenure, George had the privilege of working 

with approximately 15, 000 students, parents, teachers

and administrators. George specializes in teaching others 

how to build relationships and develop leadership expertise, 

but not just in the work world…in your personal lives too. 

George is co-author of the book The Parent Mentor: Recipes 

for Learning and holds an MA in Curriculum and Leadership
