Are you laughing more at work these days? Do you find it easier to connect with colleagues, family and coworkers?
I was recently inspired to try humor as a both a career strategy and a wellness strategy after reading this article from one of my mentors. I have been studying the works of Naomi Bagdonas for almost 6 months now, through her book “Humor, Seriously” and her course “Remotely, Humorous”.
Now, I want to find out what happens if I spend 15 days focused on opening up my sense of humor in my own work as an Experience and Product Designer.
