I help organizations and non-profits utilize comedy as a tool to help businesses thrive.
Too many work environments are stressful, boring, and devoid of any levity, which negatively affects the health and productivity of their employees. The weight of seriousness is crushing the life force of our workers and hindering their performance. It’s time to create a happier, healthier environment that energizes employees and sets them up to thrive.
Just what we needed in the middle of a stressful week near the end of the year before the holidays. Susan was great and we loved her. We’re going to definitely have her back!
I felt very refreshed and optimistic about the office environment after hearing Susan speak. It's a far more important topic than people realize in a stress-filled workplace.
