another workshop? you gotta be joking…
A serious business workshop on building humor capital
When was the last time you had a serious conversation about humor, let alone a lecture or seminar? Exactly. The positive effects of humor are endless – in social and business endeavors. And yet, almost all organisations overestimate its risks and underestimate its benefits.
Whether it’s strategy, human resources, leadership or even marketing and branding: Serious business has no room for fun. Which is a shame. Because those who dare to be funny, win. Their work cultures are more trustworthy and cohesive. Teams are more productive and motivated. Leaders are more effective. Clients? Bigger fans.
Humor is an asset and humor capital the currency of the future. So, gather your team and set off into the fantastic forests of fun.
How can you build up humor capital?
Step 1, book this workshop…
… step 2, dare to ask the big questions:
– How funny are you?
– How funny do you want to be?
– What kinds of humor do you want to use?
– What are the risks and benefits?
– How can you use humor to improve communication?
– And what’s the difference between a Skittle and your organisation’s official purpose statement? (There is none—both sound very silly when you say them aloud).
Step 3, benefit in all of these areas:
– Presentation skills,
– writing skills,
– creativity skills,
– leadership skills,
– team building,
– humor implementation,
– and humor capital strategy.
This workshop will help you understand humor, use it in a more proactive and beneficial way, and perhaps even make you a tiny tad funnier.
Curious about the science behind humor?
We get it—humor might sound like an odd topic for a business workshop. After all, everyone thinks they’re funny (a quick look at any dating show will confirm that).
But here’s what sets us apart: we don’t just crack jokes—we’ve done the research. And we’ve contributed to it. Through our homemade agency guide, “Reframe it!”, we’ve developed a collection of methods to navigate complexity in creative ways, humor included.
