Create a Thank God its Monday" kind of workplace using humor and appreciation.
Employee stress and low morale are major problems facing companies today. If ignored they can result in boredom, apathy and a toxic work environment." says Canadian humor expert / speaker Mike Moore
Laughter is one of the most effective stress busters and morale builders available and when combined with appreciation and praise can literally change the culture of any organization for the better.
Moore, the author of a special report Humor in the Workplace, speaks to organizations throughout the United States and Canada, inspiring change through a program of specific strategies and activities.
Some ways to introduce humor and laughter into the workplace:
1.Form a HA Committee ( HUMOROUS ACTIVITY) consisting of 4 to 8 employees. Their task is to meet once a month and plan humorous activities for the next four weeks.
2. Have frequent Laughter Lunches where employees are encouraged to share funny stories, clean jokes, humorous items from newspaper etc.
3. Create a Comedy Cart for the staff room consisting of humorous videos, cassette tapes, cartoons, jokes etc. You can operate the comedy cart like a lending library.
4. Bring in a guest speaker who specializes in humour to introduce the concept.
5. Start a humor bulletin board in the break room.
6. Provide employees with humorous memo pads.
7. Hold a company sponsored night out at a local comedy club.
8. Begin staff meetings with the invitation to share something funny that happened in your department since the last meeting.
Unlike other experts who drop in and then disappear, Moores distinct advantage is his special report Humor in the Workplace which reinforces his message long after his seminar is over.
