Media Training

Annabel designs and delivers training for individuals and organisations looking to boost their interactions with various sectors of the media. As a former digital Broadcast Journalist and TV News Executive Editor, Annabel has 18 years of experience in UK and international media.

Annabel’s training includes the art of storytelling, pitching to the media, building relationships with journalists, preparing for interviews, top interview techniques and crisis communications.

A recent testimonial from historic veterans charity Haig Housing Trust:

“We can commend Annabel Deegan highly. She recently provided our senior and communication teams with a half-day media training session which all found engaging, relevant and practical. In a heavily competing and clamorous market, media messages need to be concise, clear and relevant and Annabel is exactly the right person to help your messaging stand out from the crowd.”

Annabel’s training can be delivered in person or online. Her training is bespoke and tailored to every client’s different requirements but a typical half-day session is a professional presentation that combines videos, team exercises, pair work and one on one filmed interview practice (if requested). Organisations typically invite their communications team, their C-suite executives and the training is also highly beneficial for wider departments including finance, HR and operations management. Why? Because powerful communication and presentation skills are at the heart of this training. Turbo-charging those areas of your professional life is vital in today’s fast-paced world that’s constantly competing for our attention. I guarantee you’ll walk away with fascinating takeaways.

A half-day session starts at £1495 (for a team of 8 that’s under £200 per person!)
