Cathy Le Feuvre Training

If you, or your organisation, are interested in developing your media and PR skills and knowledge base, or want to improve your presentation skills, either on a personal level or for media presentation, then I can help you, whatever your budget.

Media Training

With my years of working in mainstream journalism and broadcast presentation, I have great experience in helping people to understand the demands of the modern media and to develop strategy for media PR to ensure companies, groups and individuals don’t miss out on media opportunities. Whether it be a basic course in Media Awareness for your staff, or learning how to write and deliver a press release, or training to help develop a Crisis Plan for a specific issue – I can help you.

In addition, in the existing Knowledge Economy, we all understand the importance of developing and keeping a good reputation.  Reputation Management are not just a trendy 'buzz words' - it can be vital to sales, fundraising and your good name. Reputation is something which all your employees need to know about - from the person answering the telephone to the Managing Director delivering media interviews. I have good experience of developing and delivering Reputation Management courses and will be happy to share this experience with you and your organisation or company.

Presentation Training

Media opportunities may not come around that often and you do want to maximise every moment you might spend in front of a reporter, camera, or microphone. Identifying the best spokesperson for a company or organisation or an issue is vital and I have trained many people in interview technique.  I have undertaken Crisis Management courses for businesses dealing with a challenging issue,  and advised and coached on media interviews in general and crisis situations.

For those on the other end of the microphone, I have run successful Broadcast Masterclasses to assist those dreaming of breaking into the media and can also advise on developing media and journalism skills.  

We all know that first impressions matter a great deal - it’s said that within the first few seconds of meeting, someone may make their mind up about you so you want to ensure you are making a good impact!  I have a passion for helping people to present themselves effectively and professionally. Personal presentation skills can be learned and I have some experience in helping people to improve themselves in this regard.

Faith and Charity Sector Training

With my recent experience in media PR for Christian and charity organisations, I have a particular interest in working in the faith and third sector and believe I bring a good ‘insider’ knowledge of mainstream media to help you develop appropriate media messaging within realistic budgets.

Bespoke training

I have excellent experience of delivering general mainstream training courses and am happy to deliver already developed media training packages.

But over the years I have been responsible for designing and running training courses particularly  within The Salvation Army which have taken mainstream training techniques and worked them into culturally specific messaging. If you want to develop a bespoke training course designed to take the essentials of media / presentation training and ensure they speak directly into your corporate culture, then I will be delighted to work with you.
