In this program we'll learn the importance of fun and humor in the workplace and he fine line between appropriate humor and rudeness. We will learn the harm of sarcasm among team members. As a manager, I've learned it is helpful to add a level of playfulness to everyday tasks. It's clear that employees who have fun on the job are more creative, make better decisions, and get along with their coworkers. It is very important to minimize boredom and fatigue - and humor and laughter can reduce stress and boost morale. Of course, humor in the workplace must be appropriate. For example, sarcasm and teasing tends to be negative, often coming from a place of hostility, and is usually hurtful to the recipient. These wounds are etched in the memory like a painting. We must be mindful of the images we create and the thoughts that linger.
