Jamie Weeks has been called the culture cultivator. He is a dynamic keynote speaker, author, and boots-on-the-ground executive who is one of today's most inspiring voices in workplace culture. He’s the Executive Chairman and Founder of Honors Holding, the largest franchisee for Orangetheory Fitness across the globe, and the Executive Chairman and Founder of Legacy Franchise Concepts, a Dogtopia Franchisee and Franchisor for SweatHouz Infrared Sauna Studios.

Jamie began his career as Senior Vice President at Morgan Stanley's Southeastern Wealth Management Group. As an asset manager, it didn’t go unnoticed that the wealthiest people inherited or owned their businesses. This knowledge inspired Jamie to dive into the franchise world. The exponential success of his first purchase of three Orangetheory franchisees, alongside a life-changing event in his mid 30's, led him to discover his purpose was far more than accumulating businesses and wealth. He realized he had broken the code to the secret to happiness and business success. He went from amassing wealth to building a culture of happiness for his employees and clients and inspiring others to do the same.
For over two decades, Jamie has developed strategies that guarantee thriving cultures, enable a unique life balance, and foster exponential business growth. Straightforward and passionate, he teaches his audiences when to take risks in business, when to invest in yourself, and why culture building has become his signature stamp. Jamie is an energetic and exceptionally successful entrepreneur whose hard work and successes give him the freedom to live on his terms. Jamie is on a mission to share the secrets of his phenomenal success with others.
Jamie received his B.A. in Classical Rhetoric from Huntingdon College and an MBA from the University of Georgia. He and his wife of 20 years live in Atlanta, GA, with their two teenage daughters. Along with a love of music, one of his unique passions is his farm, located just outside Atlanta. He maintains two hydroponic greenhouses, which produce and give 2000 pounds of produce to local food banks and communities weekly.
Jamie's motto: "When you only care about yourself, no one else cares about you. When you care about others, everyone cares about you too."
