“A Sense of Permanence: Keeping Our Warmth During Hot and Cold
Times”
A Keynote Presentation by Frank Pastizzo |
Frank Pastizzo’s background includes working side-by-side with doctors in air
force emergency rooms, teaching high school English and Drama in England,
touring as a stand-up comedian and professional actor in Europe and the U.S.,
and working as a health care administrator and marketing executive for various
agencies in New York. Through an eclectic mix of music, comedy and poignant
story telling from his diverse background, Frank Pastizzo forges a connection
with his audiences. Seeing the workplace as an extension of our lives where we
spend the majority of our time, Frank inspires us to bring the qualities we hold
most ideal in our family lives, into our schools, businesses and organizations.
Through the modeling and practice of his C.H.E.R.I.S.H., we are able to attain
an environment where we feel a sense of loyalty and trust, and it shows. The
result is an establishment where we feel a sense of belonging, direction, and
comfort.
