What’s funny these days? Ever wondered how the landscape of humour has evolved in the business world over the past decade? Prepare to discover, through our lively conversation, how comedy has shifted gears, for better or worse, in the day-to-day corporate realm. From recounting our experience of revising the 'Auntie Close' training method into the 'Emergency Close', to delving into why humour is a necessity even amidst global chaos - we leave no stone unturned.
We also take you on a journey through the changing face of comedy and how societal norms influence humour and the ease with which it can offend. With insights from Rowan Atkinson's campaign to defend the freedom of humour, we explore the fine line between humour and offence.
As we bring humour into the workplace, prepare for a fascinating exploration of the four types - affiliative, self-enhancing, aggressive, and self-defeating, and their profound impact on workplace dynamics. We share personal anecdotes from our own careers and offer a goldmine of insights on the do's and don’ts of humour at work. From humour as a performance enhancer, to mastering the perfect punchline, this episode promises a perfect blend of laughter and learning. So, buckle up and get ready to view humour in business from a whole new perspective.
