Unlike other leadership speakers and trainers, David Horning's 11 years of comedy, speaking, and corporate training experience brings an outside-of-the-box, hands-on approach unafraid of challenging leaders to disrupt the status quo. Through his programs, David has energized audiences across the country and proven to leaders that developing a sense of humor is the secret sauce for building organizations where people WANT to work. His successes include Fortune 2000 companies, DisruptHR, 100+ SHRM chapters, and his work has been featured on HR.com and LinkedIn’s Daily Wrap. Together with strategic communications firm and top workplace Peppercomm, David has developed training programs featuring a mix of comedy exercises, and he was chosen to be part of the firm's Laughing Matters Council, a group of experts across the humor spectrum. David is the founder of Water Cooler Comedy, which produces corporate and private comedy shows, and Secret Society Comedy, a Cleveland-based pop-up comedy club.
