I’m not an expert but you can try a few different things.  
First, check for signs of over watering and root rot. Dark black/brown and mushy stems at the base of each stock and greenery locations (looking at your photo I don’t think this is the issue but you’ll want to rule this out)  
The more likely issue I think is it’s root bound and needs a bigger pot and/or it’s not getting enough water.  
When was the last time it was repotted? Best way to water is probably in your shower/bath tub so you can really drench it (top water a few times, till water runs freely) and then let it drain completely (about 15 mins).

When leaves start turning yellow, the first thing to check is the soil- all the way down to the bottom using a chopstick or something if you can. If it’s 100% dry, then it’s underwatering. If the soil is wet at all, it’s probably overwatering. Corn plants like for their soil to dry out 75%-100% in between waterings (I let mine dry out completely to be safe). If it’s an overwatering issue, you might need to check on the roots for possible root rot.
