Overview
Ríete como un niño, triunfa como un adulto
Cuando somos niños, nos reímos todo el tiempo. En promedio, un niño de cuatro años ríe hasta trescientas veces al día, mientras que una persona de cuarenta años ríe trescientas veces… pero ¡cada dos meses y medio! Crecemos, empezamos a trabajar y de repente nos convertimos en personas serias e importantes, y cambiamos la risa por resultados y apasionantes videollamadas.
Pero los beneficios del humor para nuestro trabajo y para nuestra vida en general son enormes. Muchos estudios han demostrado que el humor nos hace parecer más competentes y seguros, fortalece nuestras relaciones, desbloquea la creatividad y aumenta la resiliencia en tiempos difíciles.
La doctora Jennifer Aaker y la asesora empresarial Naomi Bagdonas tienen como objetivo ayudarnos a descubrir el poder del humor. Basado en el popular curso que imparten en Stanford, este libro te mostrará cómo incorporar las herramientas de la comedia en tu día a día. Con una ingeniosa mezcla de estudios sobre el comportamiento humano, consejos de comediantes de primer nivel e historias personales de los principales líderes del planeta, Hazlo con humor da por fin la importancia que amerita un tema tan serio como la risa.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
WALL STREET JOURNAL, LOS ANGELES TIMES, AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER • Anyone—even you!—can learn how to harness the power of humor in business (and life), based on the popular class at Stanford’s Graduate School of Business.
Don’t miss the authors’ TED Talk, “Why great leaders take humor seriously,” online now.
“The ultimate guide to using the magical power of funny as a tool for leadership and a force for good.”—Daniel H. Pink, #1New York Timesbestselling author of When and Drive
The research shows that humor and laughter are among the most valuable tools we have at our disposal for strengthening bonds and relationships, diffusing stress and tension, boosting resilience, and performing when the stakes are high. That’s why Jennifer Aaker and Naomi Bagdonas teach the popular course "Humor: Serious Business" at the Stanford Graduate School of Business, where they help some of the world’s most hard-driving, blazer-wearing business minds infuse more humor and levity into their work and lives.
In Humor, Seriously, they draw on findings by behavioral scientists, world-class comedians, and inspiring business leaders to reveal how humor works and—more important—how you can use more of it, better. Aaker and Bagdonas unpack the theory and application of humor: what makes something funny, how to mine your life for material, and simple ways to identify and leverage your unique humor style. They show how to use humor to rebuild vital connections; appear more confident, competent, and authentic at work; and foster cultures where levity and creativity can thrive.
President Dwight David Eisenhower once said,“A sense of humor is part of the art of leadership, of getting along with people, of getting things done.” If Dwight David Eisenhower, the second least naturally funny president (after Franklin Pierce), thought humor was necessary to win wars, build highways, and warn against the military-industrial complex, then you might consider learning it too.
