Humor is the ability to find lightness in stressful situations and make others laugh. With your wit, you create a positive atmosphere that motivates everyone and brings the team closer together.
“Laughter is timeless, imagination has no age, and dreams are forever.” – Walt Disney
The talent in action
Imagine you are organizing a team-building event and making everyone laugh with your humor. During a game, you make a funny remark that breaks the ice and lifts the mood. Everyone immediately feels relaxed and ready to work together on the challenges.
The blind spot
