Initiative is the fuel behind every breakthrough—every innovation, improvement, and act of leadership. Yet in many workplaces, that spark has dimmed. In this immersive and interactive workshop, Kirk Weisler helps teams rediscover what happens when people stop waiting and start doing. Through powerful storytelling, energizing activities, and real-world applications, participants learn to identify what kills initiative—and exactly how to reignite it. The result: teams that take ownership, leaders who model action, and a culture where doing the right thing isn’t rare—it’s contagious.

Takeaway

What You’ll Experience

This isn’t a lecture. It’s a hands-on lab for personal and cultural transformation—filled with laughter, learning, and lasting results.
Participants will:

  • Discover why initiative fades and how to revive it in themselves and others
  • Replace hesitation and burnout with action, ownership, and confidence
  • Design micro-moments of initiative that build unstoppable momentum
  • Learn to recognize and reward initiative to make it part of daily culture
