I enjoyed being interviewed by Fortune for this article on “laughter padding.”
 
If you know me well, you know that I love a good laugh. But I also know that laughter is a form of communication, both in personal #relationships as well as between leaders and team members at work.
 
Laughter can mean you have a good sense of humor, but it can also demonstrate anxiety, nervousness, and/or a lack of confidence. And laughter has cultural implications, too, as I shared in the article.
 
I’d love to hear what you think. What have you noticed about “laughter padding” at work and across cultures?
