Adela Josue Polin, Founder and President of The Corporate Circus, Inc. (www. thecorporatecircus. com), is an MBA whose corporate experience led to the writing and creation of “The Corporate Circus” as an entertainingly satiric look at corporate life. The Corporate Circus consists of 15 unique office humor characters, currently in the form of collectible plush dolls satirizing the workplace. These characters come alive in a fantasy-style tongue-in-cheek corporate satire book titled, “The Corporate Circus – a fairy tale soap opera on office life” and are illustrated in a colorful comical corporate hierarchy poster titled “The Org Chart.” The book has received a five Star rave review from Midwest Book Review stating it as “humorous, witty and engagingly presented…a highly recommended reading!”

The Corporate Circus Inc., an American Company, headquartered in Henderson, Nevada, USA, owns all intellectual property rights, including copyrights, patents, and trademarks, artworks, illustrations, designs and books involving The Corporate Circus.
“The beauty of The Corporate Circus is that it takes complex business issues (e. g. organizational behavior and other business related matters), simplifies and presents them through animation that is visual, fun and humorous. Further, TCC characters, concept and story have many advantages, such as universal, global appeal, entertaining, educational, therapeutic (through office play and humor), thought provoking and profound. The business applications of TCC are extensive as an entertainment and/or educational project,” said Adela.
The first launch of the “edutainment” project will be through publication of The Corporate Circus book in English and Chinese localized for the China business culture. This will be followed shortly by publication of new business teaching books and other related subjects matters using The Corporate Circus characters. Promotion of TCC books, concept and brand will be through an “infomercial” animation using shorts films to introduce The Corporate Circus 15 office humor characters in their corporate settings.
