Humor can be a powerful business tool. But, it can also be a dangerous one. The wrong joke at the wrong time can sour a big business deal, or land you in hot water with your HR department. But an effective use of humor can put a client at ease, and help you sway even your staunchest opponents in the office. So how do you use humor effectively?

We’ve assembled an expert panel that will help you understand humor’s role both internally in an office setting, and externally as it relates to working with other businesses and consumers.
