It may come as a surprise, but fun and work are not contradictory ideas.
In fact, people who bring joy into their daily work are more likely to be resilient under pressure, forward looking, calm, productive, healthy, and liked by employees as well as employers.
People who know how to have fun are better managers and more promotable.
Taking yourself lightly, laughing in the face of problems, and staying upbeat while pursuing your goals is C.W. Metcalf’s re-definition of the “professional attitude.”
With his highly successful book and corporate workshops, Metcalf is helping to reshape America’s corporate image, finding that an upward curve of the lips often leads to an upward curve in productivity and profits.
In Lighten Up! The Amazing Power of Grace Under Pressure, Metcalf reveals the specific skills you can practice to develop more joy in your life and workplace.
You’ll discover how to take yourself lightly even while taking your work very seriously.
Listen, and you’ll also learn that humor is no laughing matter, that the new medical field of “psychoneuroimmunology” is actively discovering how emotion, laughter, and attitude influence brain chemistry and the immune system. You’ll find out about many of the amazing discoveries concerning the health and healing powers of humor and a positive attitude. From his long-term experience working with hospice centers, Metcalf has seen firsthand the power of humor to heal.
You’ll hear how each of your 5 senses may be individually no more important to your well-being then your sense of humor. A sense of humor is more than just having a witty way of telling jokes, it involves being flexible and strong enough to bend but never break in emotional situations.

• overcome fears that hold you back
• thrive in an ever-changing environment
