Our media training has helped hundreds of CEOs and senior managers perform with confidence.
Embrace your next media interview – whether in person or virtually.
Former broadcast journalist and TV presenter Bill McFarlan reflects on the importance of media training.
Many people worry about getting it horribly wrong with the media.
Often that fear’s justified – but we’ll share our experiences as journalists, broadcasters, presenters, and trainers that show you how to deal with the media with confidence.
“You need to do three things with your message: simplify, clarify and magnify.”
Are you dealing with a major announcement in Glasgow?
Or launching a new product in London?
Are you worried about dealing with difficult journalists?
Or are you facing the media for the first time?
Let us help.
Here’s what you can expect from a Media Training course from Pink Elephant Communications.
First, we’ll learn about your experiences with the media – and explore why some interviews go downhill fast.
Then we’ll show you the rules of the road to give you safe passage with the media.
Finally, we’ll rehearse the kind of questions the media would ask and show you how to answer those difficult questions with skill and confidence.
Email us today to arrange a session with our team of broadcast journalists.
Or, if you want to learn via video in your own time, buy our Working with the Media e-learning masterclass here.
First time in front of the media? Worried about getting it horribly wrong? We’re here to show you how it’s done – based on a lifetime’s experience as journalists, broadcasters and trainers.
Do you have a major announcement to make that requires careful media handling? We’re here to shape and test your messages – so they stand up to any amount of media pressure.
Did you come on one of our media training courses before but you’re now rusty on the principles? We’ll refresh your memory of the theory and practice of handling the media.
Things can go wrong in business – quickly and catastrophically. If you have a crisis management plan in place, we’ll put it to the test to keep your business safe.
So what’s it like when the media swamps your business on the day that something major has gone badly wrong? Find out by engaging our full-scale emergency exercises.
The tutors have a great attitude and result-orientated method.

Having recently benefited from media training with Pink Elephant, I can fully recommend their services. Andrew and Marjory were engaging tutors who made the day both educational and fun for us all. Practising the art of avoiding Pink Elephants is something I now practice daily thanks to their training! Overall a high-energy, thought-provoking day.

I have attended many training courses throughout my long career but this was definitely one of the very best. Pink Elephant Communications were well prepared having researched our business and were confident and assured in their knowledge and experience and provided insightful feedback and good coaching throughout the day. I was impressed from the outset […]

I really enjoyed the session. Lots of relatable stories that have stayed with me and made me aware of how much more impactful I can be by following some basic principles.

Some media trainers knock you down…and leave you down. Our media coaches show you how to deal with each knock…and still win through. So you have the presentation skills to perform – with confidence.
