onPoint Communication | Connie Dieken

The Influential Communicator

This program is for those who want to handle tough media and also take strategic advantage of various kinds of media opportunities to advance business interests.

The world of media is powerful but tricky. In this certainly one-of-a-kind program, Emmy-award winning broadcaster and top executive coach, Connie Dieken, helps you navigate.

Think about this scenario. The media calls. Your reputation is at stake. So are your profitability and the relationships that you've spent years building. How will you handle it? Do you want to prevent looking foolish or sounding ill informed? Do you want to protect your brand and your reputation? Are you concerned about how to handle reporters' tough questions?

Better yet - no matter the reason for any particular call, how will you 'get' called when you would like help spreading certain messages and news?

You'll walk away from this program totally prepared to master the media.

You'll feel confident in your new skills to deal successfully with any type of media coverage.

You'll be ready to identify and take advantage of particular media opportunities in your area.
