The average public servant, in the midst of handling the day-to-day crises that arise, might not agree that they should be prioritizing love and laughter. But love and laughter have the power to build bonds, forge trust, and improve the productivity of your team. This session with Patrick Malone, Ph.D. will engage with the latest science that supports the fact that love and laughter should be a top priority for leaders everywhere, and will reveal the immense impact it can have on our organizations, teams, and communities.
