· Some things just crack you up.
· Others are more sobering.
· Find the balance.
I used to love laughing it up with my employees – good times, for sure, and sometimes the joke was on me. Work can be humorless at times – treating serious business seriously is important. But sometimes it’s good to lighten things up – doesn’t need to be a joke, but the kinds of interactions that humanize the workplace are good. Even cathartic. Like being okay when your employees have some fun with you – on my 40th birthday they decorated the place in black tombstones and roses, poking fun at the death of my youth. I loved it. No matter what, celebrate employees having a good time in good taste for good reasons. There’s a time for fun, and a time for seriousness – both are important at the proper times and, as a leader, you get to adjust the rheostat in search of the right balance. When work is fun the work doesn’t seem so much like work. People having a good time will do great work today.
