WHAT YOU GET IN A MEDIA SKILLS WORKSHOP WITH PODIUM COACHING

Tap into the international experience of Podium’s media skills trainers, and you get an insider’s insight on how to talk to the media or prepare for a media interview.

Learn how to deal with the media and you put yourself in a strong strategic position to showcase your expertise, to promote your goods or services, or to handle crisis communications with credibility and confidence.

Every interview is an opportunity. Every question is a launch pad to get your message across. We’ll show you how to:

  • focus your message
  • anticipate difficult questions
  • deal with confrontational interviews
  • look confident, calm and credible
  • shape an interview to suit you

We’ll help you become totally comfortable in front of cameras and microphones. Media-savvy spokespeople are a big asset to an organization. Bad spokespeople are a liability. The crucial difference between the two is media training.

Thank you for what I consider could be the best professional workshop I have ever attended and I have attended quite a few. After attending what I consider to be the most innovative way to deliver media training, I would never listen to radio or TV interviews the same again. The delivery was exceptional. Congratulations.

“The media only report stupid or careless answers, not stupid or unfair questions.”

Good media training can be the difference between success and disaster. A well-planned and well-executed media appearance delivers a clear and powerful message to a mass audience. But getting it wrong blows your personal credibility and risks irreparable damage to your organization’s reputation. With Podium Coaching, you’ll learn from internationally-experienced former journalists.
