SPEAK LIKE A CEO

287: Funny Means Money - How to Use Humor as a Leadership Advantage. Andrew Tarvin


Listen Later

Leaders who use humor are seen as more confident, competent and get better results – if they do it the right way. 

Andrew Tarvin is the CEO of Humor That Works and author of the book by the same name. 

He shares how leaders can use humor as a serious tool for better results. But it’s not about being haha funny or being a slap-on-the-back kinda boss. 

It’s about bringing lightness to leadership that increases performance, status and – yes – makes work a little more fun. 

Andrew shares compelling insights into why humor is no longer a nice-to-have, but a crucial skill for professionals looking to enhance morale, manage stress, improve communication, and even boost their status.

You will discover the critical difference between humor and comedy in a professional setting, learn practical techniques for incorporating appropriate humor into presentations and daily interactions, and understand how humor enhances your perceived confidence and competence. 

Andrew debunks common myths about humor in the workplace and provides actionable strategies for making work more engaging and, ultimately, more effective. 

Give this episode a listen and let's make work a little less "worky."
