Arti made me feel at ease immediately and shared some vital tips that I was able to utilise in the interviews that we filmed on the media training day and that I can now use in other presentation situations… I am delighted with the outcome and, most importantly, our professional associates and clients have given me excellent feedback about the interview. It has achieved the objective of giving a great overview of my company’s service proposition and ethos and contributed to an increase in business from new clients.

Extremely thought provoking and not just useful in a media setting but to take into your working day.

I found the Effective Communication Course really useful, especially the language section. The techniques highlighted will prove to be invaluable to me when presenting and pitching for new work. Thanks Arti for being so enthusiastic and helping me realise my true potential. An excellent course that I would recommend over and over again.

I had the great fortune of sitting on a Women’s panel that Arti moderated. She is an excellent communicator, storyteller, and facilitator. She married the panellist and questions seamlessly and captured all our answers. Arti is one of the best moderators and would recommend her expertise to anyone

Arti is an inspirational coach. Her combination of knowledge and enthusiasm makes the training both effective and enjoyable. The training is pitched carefully to be appropriate for the audience but pushes you beyond your comfort zone. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Arti to others who want to improve their media handling skills.

Thoroughly enjoyable. I was apprehensive beforehand but found the training extremely useful and interactive. I feel a lot more confident now if I need to speak to the media (old or new!).

Thanks so much for the media training sessions you held for us. We’ve already had lots of good feedback from those that attended – even those that were sceptical at first – and people are already starting to apply the learning, which is fantastic. I have attended many media training sessions in the past, which have largely been based on theoretical learning, and I’ve got to say the hands-on learning approach you use has been much more effective in building the confidence and capability of our spokespeople.

Daunting at first but enjoyed the session overall. Some really good tips that will make a big difference to the way I think and approach my presentations.

Arti has addressed both of my Vistage CEOs/business leaders groups. Her session on Reputation was very interesting and hugely helpful. We were reminded how making small mistakes can have massive and very expensive consequences for businesses. Arti’s recent virtual session was very insightful, as it addressed how reputation is now more important and more sensitive than ever. We left better performed and entertained: never a dull moment.

Arti provided a media training for our senior comms team at Diageo. It was overall a great experience: informative and challenging in a great way. From having on-camera practice and getting to see the recordings right away, to Arti’s kind but direct feedback, it set a good atmosphere amongst peers for us to all learn from each other as needed. I would recommend her media training to any company or person in need of a basic 101 or refresher.

The training itself was reassuring, informative and engaging. I found myself wanting to do more and more exercises and role plays so as to perfect my TV interviews!! Arti was a fantastic coach and mentor throughout the day and ensured really detailed feedback for us all. I loved her bubbly personality, delivery style and her energy. She pushed us to deal with our discomforts and weaknesses and I am absolutely convinced that we all left yesterday, far richer in confidence, knowledge and awareness than any of us would have expected.
