YouTube video

It might sound unusual, but humor has its place in the business world too! 🧐 Presentations don’t have to be dry and boring. A well-placed joke can break the ice, lighten the mood, and make your audience smile. 😄

David JP Philips put it perfectly: When people laugh, the brain releases endorphins. These make the audience more receptive to your message. 🎯

What’s the best type of humor? You’ll find out in the YouTube video.

💡 Pro tip: Situational comedy works wonderfully too. Take a close look at your surroundings or your audience and use what’s happening right now. (Recommendation: Check out Max Amini.)

So, the learning of the day: Laughter is the most direct path to your audience’s hearts! 💥
