Big Problem, Help needed!

Hi to you who is reading this post,

I was working on an outline for my novel and came across a character that had shown me a cause for concern. The problem I'm talking about is that he is a humorous character and likes to joke around, he is also a leader to an organisation so he is vital to my story. Except I am no good at writing humour, in fact I would say I'm not that humorous at all. So how should I tackle this issue?

How about watching comedy on T.V? You can see how the characters interact with each other and how the humour is directed and received. You might also come up with your own ideas for humour and such.

Just an idea, don't know how helpful you would find it though.... :)
