How Laughing At Work Can Bring Joy and Presence. An Interview with Amy Azuma

from Competency No. 5

UC Berkeley educator and program director Amy Azuma's long used humor to shift intense moods and energy. In her adult years, she's shifted from using humor as oppositional defiance to a tool for finding and creating presence, with herself and with others. In a delightful interview, Azuma shares how finding the funny in the serious can bring feelings of joy, relief, and become an excellent personal branding tool. Her 20-year career in education advising, teaching, and directing programs, mostly at UC Berkeley has become a perfect Petri dish for comedy, too. You can find Amy Azuma here on LinkedIn.
