Media Training & Messaging Workshop (2019)

Back by popular demand, Brad Phillips, founder of Throughline (formerly Phillips Media Relations), is returning to campus to lead an expanded half-day interactive media training and messaging workshop for faculty. This training will help you gain new skills and empower you to effectively speak about your work and research to media, funders, policy makers, and even on social media.

You will learn how to boil complex topics down into meaningful takeaways, drive home your message without being repetitive, approach media interviews confidently, navigate challenging questions, the importance of on-camera body language, and much more. You will also have the opportunity to hone your skills in one-on-one breakout sessions where you will receive personalized feedback and coaching. View full agenda.

For those who attended last year, this year’s training will touch on familiar topics but also cover new material and exercises. If you are only able to attend part of the workshop, please email hkatulak@bu.edu.
