Laughter: The Best Medicine...

...was the title of one of the regular humour columns in the Readers' Digest my mother used to read. I remember as a 10-year-old boy skipping past boring stuff about how brave people climbed Everest with no legs using only three plastic toothpicks they salvaged from a plane crash or about how to spice up your married heterosexual right-wing bourgeious life to read the three or four humour slots in that magazine.

Which is NOT the point of this posting. Have a look at our friend Dan's latest post to find out what he thinks about the effect of laughter.

More seriously, real laughter in the workplace is a great thing and can be beneficial for your team.  there is a world of difference between real laughter and the "I was only joking, what's the matter with you?" culture.


All the best,
