Laughology Training and Consultancy®
Laughology training and consultancy takes many forms. We work in hospitals with patients and carers, in businesses with staff and customers, in education with students and teachers, in other learning environments, including a variety of youth services and community settings.
Make your best practice even better. Laughology can work with you to improve the workplace, people’s morale, health and well-being, and internal and external communication. We deliver training in the public and private sector as well as providing master of ceremonies, motivational and after-dinner speakers, and fun Laughterobics events.
What we know and what we do
As coaches, consultants and facilitators, we believe in principles that are rooted in happiness. We have learnt that the effectiveness of a group working together reflects each individual’s happiness, and that is rooted in who they are - their uniqueness, their potential and how they function as part of the group.
Our principles and techniques have the power to transform and re-shape organisational culture, as well as empowering individuals so that each person can make a difference. We can help you to:
- communicate with staff and customers - sell new ideas,
- improve health and overall well-being,
- remove barriers and encourage positive thinking,
- help individuals to take responsibility for their own happiness,
- create a working environment where fun, joy and play occur naturally,
- build teams that inspire creativity, empowerment and outstanding performance,
- develop an organisation renowned for its exemplary customer service,
- enhance teaching methods, ensuring inclusion and creativity, and
- improve and strengthen relationships.
How we do it
Every Laughology session is individually designed and developed, based on a thorough needs assessment. For each customer, we ensure we closely match your requirements.
We have lots of techniques. We know they work and we adapt them to fit:
- interactive humour and laughter dialogue
- awareness of humour in the workplace - training exercises
- laughter and humour techniques to enhance learning, engagement and communication - including social marketing techniques
- coping and rehabilitation for health practitioners and patients
- collaborative research projects into the benefits of laughter and humour in healthcare
- creative humour for thinking and problem-solving
- assigned tasks (to begin implementing new practices in your workplace)
