Rob Polonsky – Improv & Comedy Workshops for Teams Corporate Speaker from Los Angeles, CA

Hi, I’m Rob Polonsky, and I empower teams through the transformative power of comedy and connection. With over 15 years of experience working at companies like Google, Amazon, and Disney, I combine workplace expertise, comedic artistry, and storytelling to deliver workshops that strengthen communication, boost collaboration, and inspire creativity. As a professionally trained performer, I’ve honed my skills in improv and sketch comedy at some of Los Angeles’s most respected comedy institutions. I was also part of a groundbreaking YouTube channel recognized as a top creator and a pioneer in interactive storytelling. These experiences shape the high-energy, creative sessions I bring to every team-building workshop, helping teams thrive both in and out of the workplace. My mission is simple: to make work feel more human. By infusing joy, laughter, and connection into the workplace, I help teams reduce stress, build stronger relationships, and feel energized to tackle their next challenge. I believe that laughter is one of the most powerful tools for connection and growth. My workshops are not just about fun—they’re about giving teams real skills they can take back to their day-to-day work. From creative problem-solving to building trust, every session is designed to leave a lasting impact. CORE SERVICES: 1.
