Humor: don't manage people without it.
Almost 400 years ago, the English writer and clergyman Robert Burton observed that "humor purges the blood, making the body young and lively, and fit for any manner of employment." Centuries later, Charles Darwin and Sigmund Freud interpreted laughter as a means of releasing surplus tension or mental anxiety. For radiology administrators, an understanding of humor and laughter from the historical, biological and psychological perspectives provides the basis for developing successful management strategies. Successful radiology administrators can incorporate humor into the workplace in a way that enhances the work environment for all. An enjoyable workplace and happy workforce ultimately enhance the radiology department's primary goal--providing quality patient care.
