You Can't Laugh At Work 20 Ft. Shawn Anderson Of PDQ.com
Episode 110
Monday, 7 February, 2022
If you were to make a mockumentary for your company, what would it look like?How would you poke fun at workplace norms, demotivating leaders, and most importantly, yourselves?Many leaders scoff at the idea of getting their teams together to create content rooted in irreverence, but PDQ.com did just that (3 times, actually) with tongue-in-cheek documentary-style videos on their website. Where most companies post self-inflating videos about how awesome it is to work there, PDQ.com takes the opposite route, while somehow proving that it's a place where you CAN laugh at work.Co-founder Shawn Anderson joins the podcast to talk about these videos, the value of irreverence in leadership, creating content for HUMANS, and his "Grandpa Story" that asks the question "Do you cartwheel into work AND backflip out?"Check out the mockumentary videos below:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezZg3ZC_-5g&t=316shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7HKpgT42Ewhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tl63Vz9Lo3ULearn more about PDQ.com at... well... pdq.comAbout The Podcast:You Can't Laugh At That is a podcast launched by comedians David Horning and Steve Mers to prove that anything can be funny in a world that often takes itself too seriously.
