Pope Communications’ media training will enhance spokespersons’ abilities to professionally and credibly face reporters in a variety of interview formats and develop a greater ability to field questions and manage controversy.
Our media training programs equip participants with the skills to develop and deliver a response that is powerful, persuasive, and effective. The Popes’ Executive Media Training is designed for those in a leadership or spokesperson role who may or may not have much media interview experience. We work with each individual to achieve a higher level of skill and effectiveness. During our media training programs, participants will learn to communicate with the media by following a simple planning process to target key messages avoiding preparation and message confusion during interviews. Participants will also learn to use the “bridging model” designed to address questions directly while escaping question traps and preventing rambling, unfocused answers.

At Pope Communications we understand the immediacy of the court of public opinion and the longer-term effects of the court of law. Our crisis planning and crisis training are designed to prepare leaders, spokespersons, and even frontline personnel for real-world situations that could thrust them into the glare of the public spotlight. A company’s reputation is built and shaped over many years, yet mistakes in handling a crisis or controversy can destroy it overnight. Anticipation, planning, and practice can mean the difference between a well-managed incident with short-term impact and a public relations disaster with lasting repercussions. To avoid the most serious consequences, planning and preparation are essential. Pope Communications provides a full range of Crisis Communication Training, drills, crisis plans and crisis consulting.
