La risa es una señal subconsciente de que estamos en un estado de relajación y seguridad. Le permite a nuestras mentes hacer malabarismos y conectar conceptos de una manera que no logra la concentración rígida, permitiéndonos resolver problemas complejos. De esta forma, la risa puede tener un efecto directo en la productividad de las personas en sus trabajos.
Could laughing be a way to build a stronger, more creative team culture in the workplace?
Since the global economic downturn in 2008, many of us may feel that laughing in the office might send a signal that we don’t have enough to do. Discussions that might previously have been conducted in person at a colleague’s desk increasingly take place over e-mail or Slack. In that context, office chatter can at times seem unnecessary.
But what if, rather than signalling inactivity, laughing together is something that improves team collaboration and stimulates innovation?
After years of not paying much attention to laughter, scientists are starting to reach that very conclustraion.
