Welcome to Humor, Seriously on Substack!
Why Humor?
Once we enter the workforce, our daily laughter significantly decreases—a phenomenon we call the "Humor Cliff." Yet, humor remains a powerful tool in business, enhancing competence, confidence, relationships, creativity, and resilience.
Our Mission
Led by Jennifer Aaker and Naomi Bagdonas, authors and educators from Stanford's "Humor: Serious Business" course, this Substack explores how intentional humor can transform workplaces and personal interactions. We combine insights from behavioral science, top comedians, and innovative leaders to teach practical humor applications—from making impactful first impressions to fostering creative, joyful work cultures.
