"Get Weird!"
101 Innovative Ways to
Make Your Company a Great Place to Work
John Putzier, M.S., SPHR In the spirit of his best-selling book,
“Get Weird!”
there are 3 versions of this program which can be adapted to employee groups, business owners/executives or HR managers, and can run from a 60-minute keynote, up to a half-day workshop.

Every participant will get all 101 ideas in handout  form, AND will learn the three universal truths behind the writing of this book, that are not in the book itself. With this knowledge, you will learn 1) how and why every manager must be a human resource manager, 2) how anyone can implement performance-based initiatives, even with limited time, money and authority, and 3) why getting weird is a timeless, priceless concept (i.e., because there is always a talent shortage).

If you like a no-nonsense, business-driven approach to human resources, then this is the program for you and your group. If you’ve read the book, you know John’s style is not only playful and pragmatic, but at times can even be controversial and irreverent. Skating to the edge without crossing the line, John will stimulate your thinking, eliminate excuses for innovating, provide a refreshing perspective on the world of work, and show how you and your people can Get Weird! for fun and profit!

If you would like to “Get Weird!" and Make Your Company a Great Place to Work, call 1-866-GET WEIRD (438-9347) or follow this link to Contact Us Online.

Weirdos in the Workplace!
Is body odor protected by freedom of religion? Which bathroom should a trans-sexual use? Is it still sexual harassment if I take advantage of it to get a promotion? Whatever happened to the good old days, when people looked and acted normal, came to work every day, didn’t rock the boat, and stayed until retirement?

The answer to these, and many other thorny questions are just a click away, in John Putzier’s newest book, “Weirdos in the Workplace.”
