So, what is that one unique quality a new hire candidate must possess? Simple. It’s a sense of humor. Think about
that phrase – a sense of humor. It’s more than just being funny. It’s having a sense of what it takes to be funny and
when. Do you even have that characteristic on your list? Of course not. But I challenge you to think about your most
productive associates, regardless of the role. Don’t they all have the ability to bring fun to a situation? And do it at the
right time and in the right way? That is a compelling quality you either have or don’t have. It isn’t something you can
train a new hire on. But why is this such a necessary trait to seek? I explain eight reasons why having a sense of humor leads to greater success with people.
