When we take ourselves too seriously, an occupational hazard for nonprofit staffers, we're unlikely to weave humor into our messages. And it can be hard to get the OK to use humor, especially when it deviates significantly from your organization's usual tone or it's the first time.
It's tough but worth the effort. The folks in your network are humans, too, and enjoy a good laugh just like you do. And, just as when you share a laugh with a colleague or friend, that grin or guffaw can draw the two of you closer together, enriching your relationship.
