A specialist in conflict resolution, Paul works as a speaker and consultant, advising companies and educational institutions on issues that range from diversity and compassion fatigue to using humor in leadership. He is a former Associate Director of Conflict Resolution at Colorado State University and Associate Dean of Student Affairs at the Culinary Institute of America, where he resolved complex issues in a manner that both supported students and aligned with the institution's mission. Despite the serious nature of his work, Paul has also been a "jack-of-all-jokes" since grade school. His experience as a stand up comic fuels his commitment to using positivity and humor to galvanize groups and ignite individual ambition.

Summary of this video :
1) How seriously others take us is inversely proportional to how seriously we take ourselves
2) If we are not there to laugh at ourselves there's someone out there who would do that for us
3) We live in a time where leaders who are imperfect, have a good sense of humor, and the ones who not take themselves too seriously are much more valued as it makes them look much more approachable and the work environment becomes less stressful
4) There's something really genius about being childlike and finding 300 things a day to laugh at, let that ingenious silliness out cause life is too short
ohh yes daddy
Not me almost tearing up at the end of this 🥲 i agree. Idc if i seem childish i will always use humour as long as i live!! Lifes boring without it!
Tears are just emotional sweat... get that workout in! 😉 Thanks for watching! 🙏
Wonderful talk, Paul. I'm definitely going to share this with the leadership at my work!
I really enjoyed this talk. Thumbs up!
Right on, Carlos thanks for the thumb of approval!
i feel so light after hearing this!
Baalmiki Bhattacharyya I’m so happy to hear that... spread the feeling! 😊

Great video, Paul!
Paul this was hilarious. You really opened my eyes
Tony I’m so glad you enjoyed it! I hope there’s some useful stuff in there for people to use (and that it makes them laugh of course)!
LOVE the B-ball outfit for the awards banquet! Ha! Great idea.
Thanks Jill! It was fun playing that character for the banquet (see Ben Stiller's character in Dodge Ball) :)
thank you so much for this it was entirely great😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
msa bae thanks for checking it out!
Such an important message delivered in an ingenious way! I shared this with my leadership team, as well as multiple units at our hospital during staff meetings. It was well-received and prompted some very meaningful discussions. You're such an entertaining speaker!
' oklllllllllju.po
Ingenious? Ingenuous?! Whatever! ^__^ Agreed!
Great
yeah bro...he making me blush with his shiny head
Liked it! Thank you for sharing.
Great! Thanks for this vid.
Yes! Great talk. Leaders, now more than ever, have the ability to lead by example by bringing humanity, humor and vulnerability to team communications. With office life changing rapidly, it is more important to make the time matter in connection on Zoom and on phone as we are missing the opportunities for bonding and social time that reinforces office relationships that create trust. Adding simple ice breakers to Zoom meetings greatly impacts how creative that session will be vs. cut & dry.
Super, I just listened to it and it changed my perception and understood importance of humour thank you Paul
Finally a great TED Talk about humor!
Thank you. 🙏😉
"No joke". Exactly
Got em
Wow! What a great talk! Thank you so much! I have worked with Americans for over 15 years and I have laughed all the time. Now I understand why I have good relationship with my American students and colleagues, because my local have been puzzled for years about that. :) Humor is such a soothing thing!
I just want to be his long distance humorous disciple, the 13th
When i was a student at OU in Athens I had that student number with one too many 7770 and the lecturer cannot remember my name because i was too Asian to have a very cocasian sounding name , so she calls me the girl with kingky student number. Its even more kinky for the owner of student number with all 7s. I checked it out from the computer lab box shelves😳😁🤫 well as the saying goes, life is indeed like a box of chocolate.
I just appreciate humor. Glad and happy to listen to Paul.
touched the heart...
bhavik bagiya thank you 🙏
Love it!!

Wow! Very well said Sir!
I liked your style of being humorous boss. And I am fortunate to admit that I am humorous boss, father & friend of my son.
God bless you !
great talk! loved listening to you and laughing with you! I use humour regularly with my clients too (healthcare) and definitely feel it helps in both the connection and the healing! thank-you!
Very interesting share on laughter.
Hey Paul, I just got done reading "The Levity Effect" upon your recommendation and just thinking about humor and levity in a different way has really impacted my entire team. I really enjoyed this talk man, great job! Oh and by the way you are right about one thing, you are definitely too short man! I look forward to seeing more talks man keep it up!
I'm glad to hear the team is responding!

After seeing the title in “leadership” I was waiting a serious conversation haha. Good job man.. I hadn’t laughed this much for a long time lol
It inspired and made me laugh, maybe it doesn’t add up to 300 times a day but I’ll work on to have a nice presentation going north ✌️✌️😃
Well said 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Awesome sir..... Really each and every word had a great meaning.... 👏👏👏👏👏
2016: We live in a world right now where interacting with people is becoming optional.
2021: We live in a world right now where interacting with people is becoming *illegal*
Like before 2016 was mandatory?
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW GOOD YOU ARE!! 🙌🏼
You have no idea how good this comment made me feel. 🤗🙏
Well done man - looking forward to welcoming you to USF next week!
Torry Brouillard-Bruce Thanks - I can’t wait to work with you all again!
Great speech. Inspiring.
Very beautiful
Very good
This video was a real breath of fresh air, Paul. .I have gained an insight into interplay between the Mozarts and the Salieris. I believe it could prove helpful in engaging with the challenges created by cronyism. What would be the best way for me to get in touch with you?
Life is short, just like me. Haha. Great speech, thank you! Don't mistake being a kid at heart with immaturity, love what you do and laugh often!
Hey thanks, Jamie! 🙏🙏 Keep laughing 😂
Love this 😊😊😊😊😊
KatyTP KatyTP Thanks! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Why not, who cares because Life like me is too short😂
Great speech
This was great and much needed. Thanks!
He is look like boy abunda in abs cbn!!!
It's so sad that laughter is dying out
Laughter truly does help build relationships. Good work!
Thanks Javier & I absolutely agree!
Quote: " - Life is too important to be taken seriously!" So contradicting that it sounds like wisdom. But never say that to a terrorist.
Finally, someone gave me a viable reason not to take life too serious.😂
Wonderful
Abdull The1 Thank you 🙏 & Glad to help!
I have a question, about to take serious my self insted of bullying, if to take no serios my sefl and let somebody laught over me when we have to take care when som body is try to bother me? any sugestion or coment?
jorge espinosa great question. Humility must be accompanied by self confidence. Self confidence without humility is arrogance, but humility without self confidence is just self deprecation. It’s good to be able to laugh at yourself and to let others laugh at you as well, but only to the point that everyone is laughing. Once it feels hurtful or uncomfortable to you then it is no longer helpful. Sometimes it can be easier to start by laughing at things you do rather than who you are. ✌️❤️
I love this exchange! ❤️
why does every comment here feel like an email from my boss. lighten up guys.
His jokes bombed big time, but good message!
😂 I’ve bombed much worse than that before! 😎💣 Thanks for watching!
@Paul the come back 🤣🤣😂
P.S. When does this ride end? ()=) lol.....
36 people need to cheer up,life like me is too short.
Joe Nelson Ha! Well said, Joe. Thanks for watching. 😉
The most boring people are actually those who say things like “ I wish my workplace was more fun”.
you can probably do a study and write a research paper saying that 9/10 people who write “ I like to have fun” in their profiles are actually the most boring people you never want to be around with
👊👊
Kaz Smiri 🙏🙏
Seriously, Life is to short! =) ROTFLMAO!
whats ROTFLMAO
4 people are more bitter than a digested lime.
Remember the one Friends episode where Chandler had a fake laugh for his boss's bad jokes lol bazzinga! I'd say he's the love child of mr clean and where's Waldo lol *shots fired*
ŚÇÀŔ - I’ve had Mr. Clean before, but never “Where’s Waldo” 😂. Well done.
"you don't even know what funny is yet"
Thanks Akasha- that’s one of my favorite lines in there & whenever I’ve used it I felt like people don’t love it as much as I do. 😂🤷♂️. Keep laughing! 😉
Should have used bill Burr as his comedic lookalike these days hehe
He looks like Malkovich
Ha! I haven't gotten that one much but I see it. I get a lot of James Carville though.
I married my husband because he was funny!
Lol so funny
Life is far too important to be taken seriously. Hahahahahahahah
I suppose on what you find what is funny. A sense of humor is not a common experience.
Good point, Richard! Everyone has a different sense of humor, but the most important thing is to use it! I think of it like exercise... It's good for us and people can do it in a variety of ways. Thanks for watching!
