Discover Greg’s highly sought-after customized program “Humor is Serious Business,” ideal for a keynote or breakout session. With workplaces focusing on wellness and retention, humor’s role and what defines “funny” are hot topics.
Significantly while one generation may find jokes hilarious, another might label them “offensive” or “inappropriate.” In a witty yet compelling presentation, Greg challenges his audience to see that limiting humor stifles creativity and teamwork. Even if your company claims not to be humorous, Greg argues otherwise.
With real-world examples, Greg illustrates how humor can boost sales and counter negative publicity. Unlike self-proclaimed “humor experts” who offer no solutions. As a matter of fact, Greg guides you through navigating this fine line while keeping you entertained throughout.
Perfect for any group that needs a humorous break from the serious side of business. In spite of its therapeutic qualities, laughter is often absent from the business environment. In Work, Laugh, Repeat, Greg shows it is possible to laugh at work and about work.
