"Almost all of our respondents believe that humour is an important component in the development of entrepreneurial graduates. Humour provides a better workplace - with a relaxed work environment, less stress, and improves the relationship with the co-workers. It creates an atmosphere which helps people not be stressed or to be bored and assists in advancing their creativity. Humour assists in resilience, persistence, openness and broadens the network. All the respondents agree that, the inclusion of humour in entrepreneurship course has a high value in it. When humour is added to pitching a concept, it makes the concept more interesting, it relaxes the audience and hence, the audience is more inclined towards the concept. Most importantly, the physical/emotional benefits of being good humoured includes, but are not limited to, being in good brain/mental/physical health, stronger creativity and being happy and vibrant. As humour reduces stress, refreshes mind, and brings enthusiasm, most of the respondents agree that it will increase the productivity in the workplace and, finally, all of them preferred to employ a person having G.S.O.H." Associate Professor Adela J McMurray Assistant Dean - Research and Innovation Director of Entrepreneurship RMIT University, Melbourne School of Management
