IF… YOU NEED MEDIA TRAINING

 
 
Interview for Media Training by Sharon Goble Exeter | South West England

Giving a good interview takes practice. When put on the spot, the best spokespeople communicate in a clear, concise and conversational way.

Whether you’re managing a “crisis” situation or telling the world what a great job your organisation’s doing, you really want to make the most of any opportunity to take part in a television or radio broadcast.

Media Training by Sharon Goble Exeter | South West England

Understandably, being interviewed by a journalist can seem daunting, but it needn’t be. As an experienced reporter myself, I can offer advice and training on how to look and sound your best, and how to get your message across on camera.

My approach to media training is to learn through doing! I offer intensive workshops for individuals or small groups, tailored to the needs of your business or charity and with plenty of opportunity for practice and feedback. It’s nowhere near as nerve-wracking as it may sound. You might even enjoy it! 

In addition to working with my own clients, I deliver media training for a leading agency working mainly with Armed Forces personnel.

Media Training Testimonials

“As an Oxford University department, we wanted training to enable high-level academics to deal with media enquiries calmly and confidently. The participants were universal in their praise of the training – they particularly liked the opportunity to practice interview technique in a 'safe' environment that allowed them to improve their performance. Several participants have since been able to use their newly-honed skills and have commented on how much more confident they now feel in dealing with the media. We would heartily recommend If Media to any similar organisation looking for high-quality media training.”

- Kiri Walden, Oxford University Department of Computer Science

“The SSI has been working with Sharon (through Crown Media) for a number of years to deliver media training and insight to postgraduate and external students, including MOD personnel. Sharon has also assisted with the generation of media content that we deploy in our simulations. Sharon is a consummate professional. Her skills training sessions provide the students with a credible framework for media engagement and her insight and top tips have helped many of them in real-world dealings across the range of contemporary media operations. The SSI and its students (as evidenced in feedback and validation) place great value on Sharon’s contribution to our successful educational programmes. She is a star!”

- Martin Robson, Strategy & Security Institute, University of Exeter

“I would highly recommend Sharon for media training. Her feedback and preparation were invaluable and I look forward to working with Sharon in the future.”

- Emma Osmundsen, Exeter City Living

“We had real and thought-provoking benefits as a result of the thorough preparation Sharon had carried out before our training, and from her extensive experience as a professional interviewer and presenter. I would recommend her to anyone thinking of doing media training.”

- David Williamson, Director at Oxygen House Group
