Speechwriter & Humorist · Los Angeles

Most speeches lose the room.Make sure yours won't.

About
Adam Kulbersh portrait

Emotion that connects.
Humor that lands.

Tom Hanks, Meryl Streep, Steven Spielberg, Tina Fey, Anthony Fauci, and dozens of other public figures, Fortune 500 executives, and nonprofit leaders have spoken words I wrote.

An audience that’s laughing isan audience that’s listening.

Most speeches fail not because the ideas are bad, but because the speaker never shaped them into a narrative the audience could emotionally follow. Humor humanizes. It gets a scattered room onto the same emotional page.

Coaching

Delivery is its own craft.

Some clients take the draft and are ready to roll.

Others want to rehearse it.
I'm here for that, too.

I cut my teeth coaching people who couldn’t afford to miss.

Years as an acting coach to A-list talent, including three seasons as the on-set comedy coach for a network sitcom, plus speakers and public figures navigating tribute moments and high-stakes appearances that had to land the first time. Tight turnarounds. No second chances.

Services

From full-scale gala scripting to intimate personal moments, each engagement is customized to the room, the audience, and the stakes.

Client Feedback
“My clients are exceptional at what they do, but crafting compelling content for a major event is a specialized skill. That’s the work I bring Adam in for.”
Alisha Snider
Curator of Event Experiences, Alisha Hope Productions
When producing galas, summits, and conferences for my high-profile clients, one of my first calls after the event date is booked is to Adam Kulbersh for speechwriting. My clients are exceptional at what they do, but crafting compelling content for a major event is a specialized skill. That’s the work I bring Adam in for. His ability to write material that captures a client’s authentic voice with humor, intelligence, and warmth is unmatched. He delivers remarks I’m still hearing quoted back to me months after the event. Just as importantly, Adam is incredibly responsive and fast when it comes to drafts, rewrites, and final revisions. Every event planner knows how essential that is.
“I don’t go up there without him anymore.”
Partner

I argue cases for a living. You’d think the holiday party would be the easy one. It isn’t. Your own colleagues are the toughest room there is. Every December, Adam punches up my draft, writes jokes I’d never have come up with on my own, and coaches me until they land. I don’t go up there without him anymore.
