Learning stand-up comedy definitely helps in other forms of communication. I took a comedy workshop many years ago and loved it so much I did 75 performances in three years. Wonderful memories. The downside is I tend to blurt out the punchlines that practically write themselves in work settings, and I was scolded for this more than a few times in my career. :-D
I found taking improv classes to be exceptionally helpful in building communication, teamwork and creativity. I love that you took a comedy course!
And I love that you did improv! I feel more scared of that than stand up, interestingly..
One great thing about improv is it is a team sport.

Oh wow you're a pro! That's a lot of shows, brilliant work. I'd have loved to have been a fly on the wall for your work punchlines...
