MEDIA SKILLS ON THE BIG STAGE

This fast-moving interactive presentation – with international speaker and broadcaster Michael Dodd – will boost the media response skills of large numbers of your people at a time.

Ideal for enlivening conferences and away days, it's designed for an audience of anywhere between 10 and a thousand.

The presentation can involve demonstration media interviews with participants – including instant playbacks and critiques – so that everyone learns vital lessons about how to master the media in a single exciting session.

And if being interviewed by a “Rottweiler” journalist is too daunting, actors can be used to demonstrate good – and atrocious – interview techniques .... so everyone discovers what to do, and what not to do.

Either way, your entire audience can learn to understand how journalists work and how to project your organisation's messages through the news media in the way you want.
Through Pulford Media, Michael Dodd has taught media skills around the world – in Beijing, St Petersburg, Rio de Janeiro, Budapest, London, Lisbon, Prague, Helsinki, Paris and Tokyo.

Formats and content can be tailored to suit your requirements, dealing with the issues your team needs to grapple with.

For example, the big stage format was adapted for a conference of diplomats in Singapore with focus placed on creating better press releases. Participants came from throughout the Asia-Pacific region to take part in a series of exercises to hone their news writing and publicity skills.

Make your next conference one to remember – and one where your people learn invaluable media skills they can put into practice day after day, week after week, year after year.
