Executive media and presentation training is an opportunity to work with professionals to build communication confidence. The one-on-one video training will fine-tune your media and presentation skills, key messaging, and physical presence as you learn the best practices techniques for different speaking venues and media interviews, including TV, print, podcasts, webinars, and panel sessions.For decades, Pure Performance CEO, Deirdre Breakenridge, has been a media and communications trainer, working with senior-level executives one-on-one or in small group training sessions.Designing a customized media or presentation training program begins with a pre-training discovery session. The discovery session, which analyzes past media interviews and speaking events, will determine more of the specifics of the training agenda and will help to develop the on-camera (video) practice scenarios for the training program.Training Goals: To work on tightening important messaging, being clear and concise in all spoken communication, and raising confidence in speaking or interview setting, both internally with other leaders and employees, as well as externally with media, partners, community leaders, etc.Training Approach: To coordinate a series of one-on-one sessions based on the set goals for speaking engagements, media interviewing, meetings, and presentations, etc. and to use training time to help reach these communication goals. All training sessions are a combination of in-depth discussion and learning, recorded exercises, and video practice with feedback and evaluation.The Executive Media & Presentation Techniques: The executive media and presentation training techniques may include but are not limited to getting aligned for greater self-awareness and difficult conversations, the ‘Power of the Pause,’ exhibiting confidence through verbal and non-verbal cues, message tightening with the 4S Strategy for Better Storytelling, best practice tips for body language during presentations and interviews (online and offline), and enhancing confidence when fielding questions with the KNOW, MOVE & REDIRECT technique for interviews or small and large group meetings.

As a part of the communications process, it’s important to “fix it” before you move forward. In order to fully understand the best way to develop new programs is to audit the past. Pure Performance Communications is skilled in social media audits to give you a clear picture of the strengths and weaknesses of your existing social outreach and to evaluate your social media properties for better engagement in the future. The social media audit is a comprehensive report that will uncover what needs to be developed in your policies, what monitoring technology is necessary as your outreach increases, how to augment meaningful engagement, as well as what new types of process and procedures are necessary internally to support your social program. We’ll help you identify what needs to be fixed in order to build your organization’s most effective social roadmap.
