Media opportunities don’t wait, but not every team feels ready to seize them. That’s exactly why Nadine Dereza created “How to Thrive in the Media” – a one-day workshop that gives your people the confidence, skills and practical tools to represent your business across today’s media landscape. From crafting soundbites and staying calm under pressure, participants leave engaged, enthused and ready to grasp their next media opportunity.
Nadine has been on both sides of the media fence. That lived experience is what makes the coaching so effective, and the learning doesn’t stop when the day does, every participant leaves with her Takeaway Toolkit. Whether you’re developing senior leaders, communications teams or emerging spokespeople, this workshop is built for you. It’s dynamic, thought-provoking and action-oriented, giving everyone multiple opportunities to speak, find their strengths and improve their media skills over the session.
Many thanks for moderating our CEO Panel. The whole event wouldn’t have been the success it was without Nadine’s input. We really appreciated the amount of preparation she did on the subject and her rapport with our panellists was excellent.
Intelligent, focused and great fun to work with, Nadine has the ability to gain a quick understanding of the subject in question and manages to cut to the chase in a professional and where appropriate light-hearted manner. She is a fantastic writer, editor and presenter
