Challenge / Pain Points We Solve For

Traditional learning and development is often based on prescriptive and passive lessons. This program is for organizations dealing with disengagement between management and staff, a clear need for management to learn active listening, employees feeling unappreciated, or teams struggling with a difficulty thinking on the fly.

We also solve the issue of previous training events that "didn't feel like there was enough education" or came across as too "cheesy."

“Leveraging Levity” Workshops

We offer transformative skill building through applications of improv and comedy principles, which focuses on core skills like Adaptability Training and Thriving in Ambiguity. We move beyond passive training with an academically informed and proven approach that helps you thrive in ambiguity and stretches comfort zones without feeling like a traditional seminar.

Programming is highly customized based on a formalized diagnostic intake session to address specific outcomes, such as improving leadership or sales effectiveness. Coaching and workshop sessions have unique and tailored programs with goals dependent on duration and scope.

Proven Track Record

Our method is based on a robust academic background and has been the subject of a Harvard Business School case study, making it a credible and proven solution taught at business schools.

People We’ve Made Laugh!

"LOC is probably the best training that I’ve either attended or facilitated."
Rhode & Schwartz
"I usually dread these things, and I WAS. I thought I’d hate it! I’ve never had more fun at work! We had people here today from all over the world that have never met. From very different cultures, and backgrounds. They were all laughing together. Perfect way to start our week of work together!”
Amazon
“I have hired Laughter on Call not once, but twice. If you're looking for a wildly fun, unique & memorable way to enhance your internal engagement, there is nothing else like this. I promise, your employees will be talking about this experience for years to come. Times are tough & uncertain for many industries right now, and a little laughter is the perfect way to bring people together.”
Accenture
“Laughter On Call ran a great virtual team building event for my team. It was very well organized, with a short presentation on the benefits of laughter in a business setting, followed by several fun and engaging games. The games are perfect in that they were light enough to accommodate those on the introverted side of the personality spectrum and edgy enough to allow others to exercise their creativity muscles. – It was full of positive energy and full of laughter, and it definitely helped bring the team closer together.”
Glaxo Smith Kline
“Your presentation was not only engaging but also incredibly valuable, and we are grateful for the opportunity to learn from your expertise. The feedback from attendees has been overwhelmingly positive, with many highlighting how impactful and relevant your session was.”
NJ Aging Life Conference
“I very much appreciated the insights that Laughter On Call took us through at the Dartmouth Entrepreneurs Forum – the importance of presence, authenticity, and listening as straightforward tools to build human connections and then the power of humor and laughter to cement those connections into place and to enable more durable and deeper leadership. Well done!”
Dartmouth Entrepreneur Forum

"Creative presentation lending well to application to the workforce!"
ICAA Conference
