Still image from Employee Excellence: Office Humor (The Delicate Balance)

Laughing can bring people together and fortify relationships. But what is funny to one person may be offensive to another. Considering that teamwork is based on building people up, not tearing them down, no one wants their appearance or opinions to be mocked. Humor should be a useful tool, not a weapon. Part of the "Employee Excellence" series.
