"FINDING THE FUNNY IN COMMUNICATIONS"
In order to
accomplish anything, you need to be heard and remembered! Humor works. Using
humor in both your written and verbal business communications will keep your
audience engaged, connect with clients, employees and coworkers, “sell“ your
organization, product or service to others, and make your message memorable.
This keynote combines Jan’s humor along with some easy-to-implement techniques
that anyone can use to inject humor into their communications. Jan has
written for everyone from the Tonight Show monologue to radio, greeting cards
and CEOs – but this is not just about joke writing. She uses examples from your
industry to demonstrate how to create and use humor that works. This is based
on her book Finding the Funny FAST: how
to create quick humor to connect with clients, coworkers & crowds.

She did a fantastic job! Her jokes were great and her sense of humor resonated with the audience. Not only did we laugh heartily, but we gained insight into how to use humor to improve communication, particularly in the workplace. As the organization president and conference host, I was also pleased that Jan was punctual, professional and organized. I heartily recommend Jan and would enjoy having her present to our organization again in the future. C.S., Western Regional Users Group (health care software)

Great concepts! Again, please accept our appreciation for a great opportunity to learn.” J.E., Executive Director, Indiana Association of Public School Superintendents
