How A Humorous Project Management Blog Works

By Charles Cooper


Blogs are mostly targeted for specific segments of readers looking for specific items, whether technical, managerial, marketing or employment issues. These web logs often contain text that has conciseness, accessibility, clarity and speaks in friendly and conversational tones. These are more or less a compilation of resources for those with particular subject needs.

Managers for a company need to be serious, so they study this seriousness and often conclude that if forms an unnatural barrier between them and employees. The humorous project management blog can be the ticket for creatively handling a complex management task or project correctly. And to also have this working in a spirit that is lightened by the raft of issues involved.

First of all, humor in a blog must be used judiciously, for whatever point that is being made. It can be used to punctuate a sample situation of a delicate or problematic issue, or be a good transition point that presents the next point. A common mistake for people is not harnessing the potential of humor for purposes of moving things forward.

When it comes to project management, an article that uses humor will do things like lighten negative or make a criticism acceptable or unmalicious. Also, the manager should know how it can be the catalyst, something that can break apart some deeply held dogma whose time has come for replacement. And the project handler who reads a humorous blog will have some creative inspiration.

A useful blog knows how to pull the stops on humor and makes it unnecessary to make a joke every time. Laughing too much can have a negative pull that works on the audience subconscious. The blog should also be adept at showing how to make nonmalicious jokes, and this is hard to do but highly effective when the audience realizes it.

Malice is never something to use in a blog, and its nuances are too complex except for experienced bloggers. Lightheartedness can carry the topic over the hump, when boredom can take over the show. And a blog is only effective when it illustrates how jokes are made for certain effects useful for moving projects forward.

Great comics all have the ability of being able to time delivery, making for laugh out loud reactions. But it is not merely this, but a form of creative gestalt that unlocks creativity in an audience. When employed in the right way, presentations will be more successful, necessitating less use of long explanations that might help get things mired in too much complexity.

Humor is a good tool like all else in writing, but only when used well. Writers have to be relevant as they use it to avoid the tangles of circular though processes. When thus entangled, jokes will create dark undercurrents that will seem malicious to many.

Targeting for blogs can involve jokes, and not just something you put in because it sounds good or to provide comic relief. Ideally, relief comes from enlightenment and the capacity to have new and better perspectives. If it achieves nothing more, the kind of blog that does this is a hands down winner.
