LEAD WITH HUMOUR KEYNOTE

You know how you feel after a good belly laugh? Your brain and body flooded with endorphins, recharged, happier. There’s a spring in your step. You feel anything is possible. Imagine amplifying this across your business, team and organisation?

Today humour is the new frontier in influence, engagement and performance. Generating laughs is Southwest Airlines official corporate motto. They test for humour as part of recruitment. 

Humour? You have to be kidding, you might say. ‘I’m not funny!’. Humour in business is NOT joke telling. It’s using ‘Humour Power’. This is a new kind of humour - warm, inclusive, culturally sensitive and uplifiting. Humour power is using humour skilfully and appropriately to connect, engage and inspire.

Humour power can be taught and learnt. No matter what your message, humour helps you stand out and succeed.

This keynote is an invitation to learn how to use humour for unprecedented business success.

It is guaranteed to lower stress, and put a spring in your step, improving your performance and productivity.

And be prepared to laugh all the way there.

THE EXPERIENCE

Edweena Stratton, Chief People Officer, Culture Amp
Yamini took our team through a high energy set that had everyone fully engaged from start to finish. Through practical examples and workshopping, we experienced the power of business storytelling, with a combination of both tears and belly laughs as staff shared their stories across the team. An incredible learning experience and one we would highly recommend for capability development and commercial impact.

John Roberts, CEO, Leadership Collective
One of the greatest enduring skills of leaders is their ability to convey messages and learnings through Storytelling. It has been with us for centuries and will remain for many centuries to come. Yamini is to storytelling as apple is to pie. They go together in a natural way. The ability to convey messages through stories, with humour and feeling makes them memorable. Yamini makes us all better story- tellers and therefore leaders.
Peter Baines OAM, Founder, Hands Across Water
