How many Corporate Humorists do you know? Honestly I'd be shocked if you know any other than the one and only Andrew Tarvin. After all, he is the one that decided to create his own business cards with that title while he was working as an IT Project Manager at Procter & Gamble. From there he started adding jokes to the ends of my emails, volunteered to MC meetings he wasn't invited to, and got a nameplate for his cubicle wall.  Over his 10+ year career As the CEO of Humor That Works, Drew has helped people use humor to be more effective. He has been a part of more than 500 events for more than 70,000 people in all 50 states, 50-plus countries, 6 continents, and 1 planet (Earth). He has three books, including the best-seller Humor That Works: The Missing Skill for Success and Happiness at Work and has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, and FastCompany. In addition to his TedX talk being viewed more than 12 million times, he has performed in more than 1,000 shows all around the world, has appeared on VH1, WSJ Live, and - brace yourself - was a model, for one photo session, at the age of 6 years old.

Andrew Tarvin, author of Humor That Works: The Missing Skill for Success and Happiness at Work, talks about how people need to learn how to incorporate humor into their professional lives in order to be more productive and achieve better results. Tarvin wanted to write a book that was actionable, that people could read and immediately start implementing humor into their workplace. He says that people “learn skills to be effective at our jobs, but never learn the skills to actually enjoy our jobs.” The most important thing Tarvin feels is understanding your humor M.A.P. – Medium, Audience and Purpose. Tarvin stresses that in the workplace it's less about being a comedian, it's about being effective. Humor enhances positivity and, with 83 percent of Americans feeling stressed out at work, the book is about how to use humor to execute faster, communicate better and connect – or lead – further. After all, “It's less about doing what you love than loving what you do.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This must be some kind of a joke.  "Humor That Works"? Well, it's not a joke -- even though we launched this minisode on April Fool's Day - which ALSO happens to be the release date of (AN)DREW TARVIN's new book aptly titled "Humor That Works: The Missing Skill for Success and Happiness at Work". Click the link above to grab yourself a copy! "The funniest business book I've ever read." says Luann Tarvin , HR manager and Drew's mom. Listen to this minisode plucked from the original conversation between Drew and Lou deemed to be a true Thrive LOUD classic by Lou, Drew and both of their mothers. And a special shout out to Lou's mom, who coincidentally and ironically, acted as a career counselor for Drew Tarvin.  When she learned that Drew was going to focus his career on helping instill humor into the workplace, she laughed.      *** Connect to Lou Diamond: www.loudiamond.net Subscribe to Thrive LOUD: www.thriveloud.com/podcast
