Humor in the workplace can often lead to disaster when jokes fall flat or possibly offend someone else. However, humor is perfect when carefully sprinkled through a long presentation by a humorous keynote speaker. There are many ways a bit of humor will help your keynote speaker make your event a raging and memorable success.
Connects Them with the Audience
Events with keynote speakers can often make employees feel like they are back in their school days. Complicated material, statistics, and facts can quickly make the event feel droll and have employees scrolling on their phones for relief from the overload of information. Humor is a fantastic way to reengage with the audience. It catches the attention of the audience and lifts their spirits, allowing them to refocus and await the next funny moment.
Memorable
You’ve spent money on a humorous keynote speaker to motivate, inspire, and inform your employees, but to get your money’s worth; you’ll want your employees to remember the speaker and event for at least a few months. A particularly funny bit can keep your event in the minds of your employees. They’ll instantly conjure that funny joke when the topic comes up, which will then remind them of the event and the inspiration and knowledge they took from it.
Encourages a Tight Knit Workforce
There’s nothing like an inside joke to encourage fellowship in the workforce. Motivational, humorous speakers will motivate your workers to collaborate and further group goals for the betterment of your business. Depending on the joke, they may also be able to build more trusting relationships by using the joke to share their anecdotes.
