    About Jim Pelley

    A former stand-up comedian and contributing writer for the original Saturday Night Live Show, Jim Pelley has left ‘em laughing for more than 24 years at more than 2,156 top organizations in the U.S. and abroad, including Disney, Intel, Southwest Airlines, Mattel, and AT&T. He’s brought his message of how to smarten up by lightening up to hundreds of thousands of people who are high-tech, low-tech, and no-tech-at-all. With his hilarious way of poking fun at the frustrations of everyday life, Jim demonstrates uproariously how to use humor to become more creative, more productive, and less stressed.

    Laughter Works Seminars is dedicated to providing the highest quality, most humorous presentations humanly possible; packed with tools and skills for a more productive work place. These educational, entertaining keynote programs, seminars, and skill shops combine humor with the latest communication theory and physiological research.

    Risk, Manage Change, and Laugh Often

    Discover how laughter and humor can work to your advantage when dealing with the seemingly unfunny business of balancing risk and managing change. Learn how flexibility and responsiveness are critical qualities for thriving in a world of ever-accelerating change.

    This fun, innovative seminar also explores how the successful use of humor can reduce stress, build morale, and help you lead others through difficult times of change. You will also discover the importance of maintaining a positive attitude and clarifying values when facing change – or when simply pursuing a happier, more satisfying life.

    Embrace Risk, Manage Change, and Laugh Often also shows you how to develop the skills of a successful problem-solver by using creativity, humor, and divergent thinking. Use these powerful skills to make positive changes within your organization or within yourself. You will leave this seminar viewing change as a positive challenge rather than something to avoid.
