The Gallatin Group offers full day media training and presentation training workshops. Each workshop is limited to four participants to ensure individual attention and plenty of on-camera practice. You will be videotaped and critiqued by our highly skilled consultants. Many companies have learned the hard way that how you communicate your message is as important as the message itself. Company executives should be the best messengers, but the wrong word at the wrong time can destroy a company’s credibility in an instant. Whether with the media, elected officials or business leaders we are ready to help you communicate more effectively.

Media Workshop

To clearly understand your goals and situation, prior to each workshop, we conduct extensive research on your issues and areas of responsibility. You are coached and guided through a minimum of four media situations designed to teach, rehearse and sharpen your ability to:

• Create and deliver positive messages
• Manage a hostile interview
• Handle an ambush interview
• Stay on message

By the conclusion of the workshop, you will have gained the confidence to communicate effectively with the media, even under the most difficult circumstances.

Presentation Workshop

It is common knowledge that most people’s greatest fear is speaking in front of an audience. We turn fear into fun. Our day-long presentation workshop reveals the keys to making a successful presentation. Each workshop will give you the ability to:

• Connect with every audience
• Present persuasive messages
• Use visuals effectively
• Handle audience questions

Upon completion, you will receive a comprehensive presentation supplement covering all the skills learned in the workshop, and you will have the tools and tips you need to speak with authority, confidence and ease.
