When it comes to workplace leadership, there are many critical issues. One vital “hands on” question: how to maximize leadership effectiveness in a 24/7, TNT – Time-Numbers-Technology – driven and distracted world. In fact, in his research on Emotional Intelligence, Daniel Goleman found that more effective managers employ humor three times more often than less effective counterparts. When it comes to performance motivation, increasingly, the Human Resources/Leadership fields underscore capturing people’s attention and generating “Emotionally Intelligent (EQ) Engagement.” Are you prepared to use emotional regulation and relationship-building skills as a leadership-effectiveness base?  Are you ready to reach out for the heights of higher humor? If so, acclaimed speaker and “Motivational Psychohumorist” ™, Mark Gorkin, the Stress Doc ™, has the next generation engagement concepts and tools: a) Humor Intelligence ™ (HQ) and b) the synergy of Emotional Intelligence x Humor Intelligence = Higher Power Humor (HPH).

The purposeful and playful application of HPH is self-affirming; it helps a leader project a strong and courageously vulnerable or authentic presence. In addition, this “lighten up yet get real” tool will enable you to motivate and inspire individuals, teams, and systems to: a) laugh at their own flaws and foibles, egos and excesses, b) turn pain and loss, change and conflict into purposeful and passionate, even playful, problem-solving, c) discover and design resilient and morale-building "crystals of delight” in difficult tasks and challenging times, and d) diversely collaborate and synergize by blending individual creativity and interactive community.

Let the Stress Doc facilitate your EQ to HQ upgrade with this "Get FIT" -- FUN-Interactive-Thought-provoking – Webinar or Workshop, including how to use his "Dynamic and Interactive Humor" group exercises.

This topic is for all levels of employees and management. Increasingly, we understand that the keys to organizational productivity, motivation, and morale involve more than Digital Intelligence. We’ve come to recognize the importance of awareness and communication fueled by Emotional Intelligence. And now, the Stress Doc is taking this creative consciousness/communication skillset to a new level through Humor Intelligence (HQ) that builds on Emotional Intelligence (EQ). EQ x HQ Synergy, especially a leader using Self-Effacing Humor, will enable you to grab people’s attention, sustain their engagement, and boost, if not inspire their belief, commitment, and motivation.
