INTERVIEW TRAINING
In which media would you like to place your messages?
Is it about an interview with print journalists, with current reporters or trade magazines? Or rather the spoken word? For current statements for radio or television or for a background discussion? Would you like a portrait for TV or a live broadcast or talk show?
Depending on the journalists' request and objectives, different skills are required. I am happy to tell you what is important.
It is true that whoever asks leads! - And so some feel like victims in an interview situation. But you have design options.
Especially if you know your personal strengths and weaknesses as well as the peculiarities of the media market.
You should also have your goal clear. Only then can you prepare effectively and use your answers to control the conversation in the interview.
TV interviews are the supreme discipline. You can't cover up anything. Because your face, your posture, your clothes, gestures, facial expressions already speak volumes, although you have not yet said anything.
The camera exposes every twitch of the eyebrows, nervous hand rubbing, tugging on the sweater or trembling in the voice and directs the viewer's attention.
Depending on how confidently you deal with it, you determine the focus.
We train you to control nervousness and stage fright,
how to stay with yourself and authentic and
how to place your messages in a targeted manner.
