After reading "Breathing Life Into Organizations," you may want to look at this article by Peter and me, which presents some principles for putting these ideas into action (this is only the first three pages; the next post has the final three pages...ah, Ning...).

This morning while driving to work, i heard on the radio about the results of some study that correlated laughter to happy employees. My immediate thought was, who paid for that study???.. of course laughter makes happy employees.. anyway, i thought this would make a good discussion topic.<br />
<br />
My thought about this,,, is that laughter also reduces stress and relaxes a person.. so obviously a person who is happy, will have less stress,, Is that true? what do you think?

In the week between the Spirit of the New Workplace teaching weekends I am staying in my sister's house in the Santa Cruz mountains. My oldest niece, who works for a bank in Silicon Valley but lives with her school teacher husband in Orlando, called this morning and I answered the phone.<br />
<br />
"Jan's Place."<br />
<br />
"Joe, it's Sara."<br />
<br />
"Sara! How are you?"<br />
<br />
"I'm sick as a dog...and I have a question -- can you call in sick when you telecommute?"<br />
<br />
Seems like a good SNW question to me...
