Chris’ training was brilliant. It was the perfect balance between teaching and practice, with real nuggets of wisdom and useful tips to retain ahead of any media interviews. I could feel myself growing more confident throughout the session, and had more of a concrete understanding of what was needed to give a calm, focused interview on my research. The practice interviews were incredibly useful, and it felt like a safe environment to just give things a go.

Outstandingly good and a real bench mark for me on what a training course should be. I’ve immediately utilised some of the lessons learned.

 

Brilliant trainer –  made everyone feel really comfortable and allowed people to decide on the style and focus of interviews, while also pushing so that people improved. Everyone has been so positive about what they’ve learnt and far more confident in being a spokesperson for our organisation.

Inside Edge provide a well-structured and clear training programme that puts candidates at ease while still not losing the importance of the training. The coaching is both interactive and personal, achieving a good balance of engagement with the attendees. I highly recommend all senior managers to undertake this training programme. It leaves you feeling like you have genuinely improved your skills and confidence.

This training session was excellent and I gained a wealth of valuable knowledge from it. It struck a perfect balance between theory and practical application. The session provided relevant information before immersing us in a beneficial hands-on experience, involving conducting an interview, recording it, receiving constructive feedback from both the trainer and peers. One of the most worthwhile training sessions I have attended, and I learned a great deal. Thank you.

Chris has an incredibly calm and relaxing presence, the training was really useful with practical tips about how to prepare a top line which all of our spokespeople could take away. The scenarios were tailored to our organisation and Chris both encouraged and challenged all of our spokespeople. Everyone finished feeling more confident and really enjoyed the day.

Really appreciated the real life examples, the ‘keeping it simple’ approach and a focus on bringing out our knowledge and abilities in a way that was helpful to think about the audience and the journalist needs. The way Chris was able to work with our team created a positive learning experience.
