Monday, September 1st, 2014Laughter Worth Sharing
Friday, April 11th, 2014Can someone please tell us why Yvonne Conte does not have her own television show. Watching her at the TEDxSyracuse University event this week was like seeing Lily Tomlin, Tracey Ullman, or maybe even Tina Fey.
Though she is a public speaker now (and trains others in public speaking), Conte was once a stand-up comic.
From the time she began her talk…well, actually her talk began with a joke about a scheduling mistake…Conte worked the crowd like she was doing a SNL monologue.
Conte talked about the happiness advantage and how it relates to work place enthusiasm, and eventually productivity. She even allotted a portion of her time for the crowd to literally hold their bellies and belt out a laugh.
All TED talks should be this fun.
The ‘Cuse List
