A good smile has long been a key tool for anyone who needs to influence others. Laughter is now shown to improve our pain tolerance. Humor and play can be the building blocks of problem-solving. Together they can improve our happiness and effectiveness.
- Balancing Work and Life - Register to Attend
- Date: Wednesday, December 11, 2024

The resulting better balance will help achieve more in one’s career and at home.
