why humor?

In our obsession to become as efficient as possible, we’ve run into a problem:  you can't be efficient with human beings.  Humans have “emotions” and “feelings;” they get “sick” and “tired;” and they have to do things like “eat” and “sleep.” People aren't robots, even if we label ourselves as resources.

The current way of working isn’t working.

The key to being effective not just today or tomorrow but also next week, next month, next year, next decade and (if you believe in reincarnation) next lifetime is to manage the trials and tribulations of work well. The key is humor.
