Sirkin is Chairman of the American Family Foundation Psychology Committee, and member of the Editorial Advisory Board of the Cultic Studies Journal. With Uri Rueveni, of the University of Houston, Sirkin studied the application of network therapy to the treatment of relational disorders relating to cults. This study appeared in Contemporary Family Therapy. Specifically, the study looked at the application of an intervention technique in order to help the family of an individual who had joined a group in which one member claimed to be the Messiah. The researchers utilized a team of network specialists, and the study consisted of a pre-network planning meeting, the network meeting itself which included about 70 indivuduals and took place over the course of four hours, and follow-up meetings with subgroups within the network. Drs. Rueveni and Sirkin's study has been cited in later work in the journal Psychopathology and in the book, Moving Up: Positive Psychology, by Darrell Franken, Sirkin is a consultant to the Hay Group in the Organizational Effectiveness and Management Development practice. He is author of The Secret Life of Corporations: Understanding the True Nature of Business, New Chrysalis Press, 2004.
