Sinopsis

This book is the first-ever authoritative work on the use and management of humor in the workplace. It is a practical guide for everyone involved: the humorists (âÇÖjokersâÇÖ), the targets (sometimes âÇÖvictimsâÇÖ), the observers (âÇÖaudienceâÇÖ) and most of all the managers who have to âÇÖset the toneâÇÖ and encourage, control and manage humor.áHumor is part and parcel of every workplace. However, while it usually demonstrates and fosters a united, happy workforce, it can at times be deeply damaging and divisive.áThe authors - academics with vast organizational experience and a research-based understanding of humor at work - bring together state-of-the art knowledge of the topic, making it fun, accessible and readable for all humor participants. The topics include how humor works, humor cultures in organizations, the many forms of workplace humor and their pros and cons, humor rituals at work, digital humor, workplace jokers, the 21st century issue of âÇÖpolitical correctnessâÇÖ,á and both the âÇÖbright sideâÇÖ of humor (assisting positive cultures, making work âÇÖfunâÇÖ), and its âÇÖdark sideâÇÖ (where humor offends and humiliates).ááWith over 60á âÇÖreal lifeâÇÖ illustrative stories of workplace humor, a self-completion questionnaire to measure the Humor Climate in your organization, end-of-chapter âÇÖtakeawaysâÇÖ and an end-of-book summary advocating âÇÖbest practiceâÇÖ, the book is a âÇÖfunâÇÖ, how-to-do-it guide that will both inform and entertain.á
