5.0 out of 5 stars Great companion book to WorkLaughs, December 28, 2006
In a fun easy-to-read format, Paulson provides an excellent step-by-step way of adding humor
to the not-so-funny workplace. He also skillfully touches on the negative aspects of using humor
at work.
A great companion book to WorkLaughs: Quips, Quotes, and Anecdotes about Making a Buck.
(also available on Amazon).

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource to make work more fun and productive, October 17, 2008
By Avid Reader (Martinez, CA United States) - See all my reviews
Making Humor work is not another book to make you laugh. You will laugh, but that's not its purpose. It introduces you to the value of humor on the job. The appropriate use of humor will not only increase your personal and professional effectiveness, but also the prductivity of others.

This friendly, practical book will show you how to use humor to disarm anger, unlock the receptivity of others, and enhance communication. Learn for yourself why it is never a crime to have fun on the job.
