A joke in a meeting can lighten the mood. It can also say something people are hesitant to raise directly.
Dr Allanah Johnston joins Chris to talk about her research into workplace humour and what it can reveal about trust, tension and team culture. They discuss the line between banter and a pointed remark, why leaders should not try to force humour, and how clips from The Office helped one organisation discuss workplace behaviour.
The conversation also turns to change. Allanah explains why leaders should listen to people who push back: they may see consequences the change team has missed.
Allanah is the founder of Future Calibrate, a consultancy focused on organisational change.
