Berni Stapleton believes humour and creativity are linked. She’s convinced they both can make everything better - Covid, your business, your speech, your life.
“Humour doesn’t mean you can’t talk about things that are meaningful,” say Stapleton. “Things don’t have to be divided up into tiny boxes.”
Berni will lead us in a workshop to discover how we can incorporate more humour and creativity in our personal and professional lives. “You will come away with something you can use right away,” says Stapleton.
