Presentation Skills

Facing a TV camera or radio microphone is a daunting prospect, but for many people standing up in front of staff, potential customers or any crowd is equally daunting. 

That's where Capital B Media can also help. We offer speaking and presentation skills training for anyone who may have to address an audience, no matter how big or small.

We have worked with managing directors due to speak at international conferences; CEOs preparing to address MPs and ministers, and chairs of public sector authorities who have to speak regularly at public meetings.

Our presentation skills training is very practical and hands-on. We can film and review the presentation and help you with the structure, content - and your nerves! 

Whatever the occasion, we can probably help. So please contact us now.

 

Recruitment interviews

We offer mock radio or TV interviews for organisations as part of their recruitment process.

These can test whether a potential new senior member of staff is able to represent the organisation in the best possible light in the media.

We can work with you to draw up a suitable scenario to test candiates' ability to handle the media intrerviews. We can provide recordings of interviews and feedback if required.

We have worked with fire and police services and a national park authority to help them choose the right candidate for senior posts. 

Please contact us in confidence to discuss your needs.

 

 

TRAINING FOR COMMS TEAMS

We can run workshops for comms/ PR teams on 'dealing with the media'.

The workshops are based on our experiences as former journalists and PR account managers, backed up by insights from the latest research into what the media wants today from PR teams in this ever-changing media environment.

With our experience on both sides, we are able to offer an understanding of this complex world, which will help your PR teams be more effective in their media relations; whether it is knowing how to pitch or how to craft a perfect press release.

Please contact us to discuss your needs.

 

MEDIA AWARENESS WORKSHOPS

If you have a large number of staff you would like to have more of an understanding of the media and public relations, we can help too. 

It may be employees who have interesting stories to tell which could help boost your reputation. Their work could be featured on social media or even radio or TV, if only your comms team knew about their amazing news. Or it may be frontline staff who are open to direct contact with the public or the media, with the associated risk to brand.

We've helped NHS comms teams uncover stories that have made national news and utility suppliers avoid potential negative publicity.
