Humour at the workplace can address psychological safety, team dynamics, leadership effectiveness and client relationships. Yet it isn’t taught in business schools or corporate training rooms. That's a big gap. Because when you can make your team laugh, magics happen. People contribute ideas instead of sitting like zombies. Psychological safety and team dynamics improve. You gain respect and liking. And the work gets done fast, efficiently, and – best of all – happily.

Of course, humour alone isn’t enough. You still need strategy, analysis and execution. But with humour in your arsenal all those other weapons start working better.

Paddy Rangappa, a humour writer (The Hindu and DNA in India, The Strait Times and tabla!; author of Been There Bungled That) and speaker, has wielded laughter successfully in his 35+ years with P&G, McDonald's, and Pizza Hut.

He now teaches this to corporations through workshops and keynote addresses.

Learner’s Speak – A testimonial

Andrea Lee, McDonald's I’ve been lucky in my career to work with some incredible leaders - Paddy is not only a strategic and authentic leader, he has a command of marketing that is clear the minute you meet him. His communication is not diluted with jargon or buzz words and you always end up smarter (and more inspired) after talking to him. I worked with Paddy for 2 years and was consistently surprised by his artful coaching style that both fostered my critical thinking and boosted my confidence. His passion is contagious and he made my day-to-day work feel more meaningful. He has opened doors for my career and has been an awesome manager and mentor. If you have any chance to work with Paddy, take it!! Paddy is also a talented and inspirational keynote speaker - his speaking engagements connect with the audience, effectively deliver messages and he adds just the right amount of humor and levity to any topic he presents. Whether it be a marketing conference for one his clients, or a company event, Paddy can write and deliver a creative, compelling narrative. I’d highly recommend Paddy for any speaking engagements!
