Should we bring humour to work?Can it help us connect and achieve more, or risk making us seem trivial?Our guest today, Drew Tarvin, learned engineering in school and was hired for his technical skills. Yet, it was humour—not engineering—that became his edge in the workplace.By using humour, he diffused tension, built strong relationships, influenced others, and accelerated his career. This led him to create Humor That Works, a company that has helped 10,000+ leaders in over 100 organisations—including IBM, GE, and the FBI—harness humour to lead effectively.In this episode, Drew shares how humour can amplify leadership and why it’s more than just a tool for entertainment. As someone who typically discusses purpose and fulfilment, I found this conversation a powerful reminder that humour can add depth to even the most serious work.Episode Shownoteshttps://howtolive.life/episode/080-humour-at-work-with-Drew-TarvinRelated Episode#059 Creativity at work with Eshan PonnaduraiSpotify: https://howtolive.life/ep59spotifyApple Podcasts: https://howtolive.life/ep59appleConnect with Matthewhttps://drewtarvin.com/For Folks Affected by Restructuring4 Week Career Transition Program. https://www.sharadlal.net/thrivethroughtransition How to Live NewsletterGo deeper with articles every 2-3 weeks.
