The first time I heard Kirk speak, I just knew he was an authentic and caring individual. His sense of humor and moving stories left an indelible impression on me. That’s why I am so thrilled and appreciative that he agreed to join me on my radio show for two installments — If you have never heard Kirk speak before (or even if you have), you will want to make sure you tune in. Kirk will be providing some tremendous insight about common workplace issues and challenges, so I am sure you will learn a thing or two along the way!
Kirk’s personal story of taking initiative and being a “scooper” while being surrounded by a bunch of “pointers” has been the stuff of inspiration for companies such as Boeing Aircraft and Harley Davidson. The simple story about dog poop has literally garnered the attention of companies and individuals all over the world, and has inspired many to take action and move from being good to being great.
Chief Morale Officer Kirk Weisler gained national recognition while working in the, high turnover, low pay, low morale world of outsourced contact centers where he created an outrageously cool corporate culture. A culture so rich in the spirit of ownership, engagement and measurable results that Kirk was invited to share them, first nationally, then internationally. He now travels around the world giving experiential keynotes on the everyday things leaders can do to positively influence climate and build great cultures for themselves and their people.
Kirk’s unique background as a US Army Ranger, his work with At-Risk Youth and experience as a Master Storyteller and Team Builder make him a very fun, engaging, and sought after speaker. He is the author of the Best Smelling book The Dog Poop Initiative and lives in Atlanta Georgia with “Wonderful wife Rebecca and their five remarkable children!”
I am a subscriber to Kirk’s email list, simply called, “T4D,” short for “Thought For the Day,” and I encourage you to join as well. I enjoy reading his messages, and many times they provide me with some new knowledge, inspire a new thought, or provide me with motivation and positivity. If you are interested in subscribing to Kirk’s T4D, please visit this link:

Kirk also has one more book (which we will discuss on the radio show) based on an old and well-known poem, titled “The Cookie Thief.” It’s a great read, written in the same style as “The Dog Poop Initiative.” To find out more about Kirk’s other book, please visit the link shown below:
