Finding the Funny in Change

The lightning-fast pace of change is staggering to many leaders, organizations, and some members of your teams. Rapid, continuous change often results in fear, tension, and miscommunication. What are some practical tips that can help leaders in difficult times? Jan has spoken across the country on the use of humor in organizational leadership. Your attendees will learn how to diffuse tension instantly, initiate tough conversations, and facilitate communications through using humor. They’ll walk away laughing and learning about dealing with change in a memorable way.

Finding the Funny in Communications

This keynote is more in-depth information on putting humor into your written and verbal business communications. In order to accomplish anything, you need to be heard and remembered! This keynote will show your attendees how to create and use humor in business so that they connect with employees/coworkers/clients, keep people engaged in their message, “sell” their product or service, and have their message remembered. This is a very customized program. Jan takes examples of communications (memos, documents, etc…) from your industry, and shows attendees how to make their message stand out by using humor.

Flourishing From Failure: Handling Mistakes Like a Comedian

Nobody tries to fail, but sometimes things go “not as planned,” and recovery is rough. Comedians know this more than anyone because they have a very high profile job. And when they flub up, or something goes wrong, it needs to be fixed fast and on the spot. Jan gives tips on how to handle, avoid and move through these situations. Don’t let mistakes and mishaps hinder future success! This keynote is based on Jan’s new book, “Convention Comedian: Stories and Wisdom From Two Decades of Chicken Dinners and Comedy Clubs”.
