Summary: Some people think the workplace is no place for funny business. But a recent survey of more than 700 CEOs showed that 98 percent prefer job candidates with a sense of humour, and 84 percent think that funny employees do better work. Both lecturers at Stanford, comedian Naomi Bagdonas and psychologist Jennifer Aaker's research into humour has shown that exhibiting humour in the workplace can enhance our influence and status, build bonds and defuse tension within teams, enhance creativity and problem-solving, and even make us more likeable. Based on one of the most oversubscribed courses amongst Stanford MBAs, this book will teach you how to: employ the techniques of stand-up comedians; apply different kinds of humour for different situations; create a culture of levity and lead with humour. If you think being funny is unprofessional, think again. Humour is the most under-leveraged tool for power in the working world. |
