Gallows humor(黑色幽默) may seem like a mistake,
or at least in poor taste. But psychologists say that gallows humor can be an
important way to relieve stress.“Humor makes you feel in control and it can
give you that feeling that everything is okay even when it’s not,”says James
M.Jones, a psychology professor at the University of Delaware.
Psychologists say that just because you’re
laughing doesn’t mean you’re wasting time. Occasional tease among colleagues,
particularly if it is associated with the job, can inspire creativity,
departmental cohesiveness(凝聚力) and performance.
“There are a lot of stresses out
there,”says Ed Dunkelblau, a psychologist in Chicago.“Gallows humor is a way of
making difficult things a little less difficult.”
This is as long as the humor is used for
the right purpose. The main point of it should be inspiring people—not laughing
at them. “Anything that would lift morale(士氣) in terms of the company would be good humor,”says Thierry Guedj, a
professor.
You want to give your employees and
co-workers a sense of belonging, so don’t make observations that are
aggressive. Most obviously, Dr. Guedj says, don’t make comments about people’s
physical appearance or faith. If you have any doubt about its appropriateness,
don’t go through with it.
Or you can take aim at the person that you
know won’t be offended(冒犯): yourself. “If there’s going to be a joke or story, it should be
you,”Mr Dunkelblau says.
“People with the ability to laugh at
themselves can give other people permission to laugh at themselves, too,”Mr
Jones says.“And if you can laugh at yourself, you feel better about yourself.”
