Summary of the book...

Life is Improv! Putting the FUN

of an organization can be

exciting. It’s a place to share

ideas, collaborate and feel as

though you are making a

difference. And, sometimes it

can be stressful. Personality

conflicts, communication break

down and even remote working

can contribute to stress in the

workplace.

 

Humor is a powerful tool.
In this book I explain the top seven ways humor, laughter, and improv can help managers build effective teams.
