Do I inspire?

Fun is productive. Imagine a world where people love their work environment, you are calm, stress free, and happy. You are relaxed, and more accepting of others. You are thinking more clearly and creatively. It’s time to think about creating an atmosphere that is challenging and fun. (you may want to check—is your staff suffering from terminal seriousness?)
Laughter creates a bond that brings others together, people like being with people that are having fun. Let’s face it some of us are darn entertaining! Studies show that children laugh an average of 400 times a day and that number drops to 15 times a day by the time people reach the age of 35. Preschoolers must know something we don’t. Humor can level the playing field to create an atmosphere that encourages honest dialog, open communication, and increased risk taking. How much easier is it to have that difficult conversation you have been putting off, if you can break the ice with a little humor? We’ve all heard the health benefits of laughter before, hopefully you are convinced it’s time for a fun injection.
Do you often catch people smiling or laughing at work? When something funny happens do you stop to appreciate it? Does your team do something fun together monthly? What will you do to bring some humor to work today?
