Laughter is the best medicine, as the saying goes, and it’s also a key ingredient in running a successful business. Here are eleven ways having a sense of humor can help you be more successful at business.
In business—indeed, in all matters of life—a sense of humor is an essential characteristic. If you can laugh at yourself, you are more likely to be successful and more likely to enjoy the success you have. Plus, you’ll get others to like you, and that’s an added bonus.
Humans are not perfect. We have flaws. There’s no sense pretending it isn’t true. We all know it. Therefore, instead of pretending to have it all together, allow yourself the ability to fail. You can use that failure as a means of humoring yourself and others, inspiring all your colleagues to be less anxious and more productive.
