01. What’s Working Now

Communications is constantly evolving. It’s vital you know the formats and styles that are working well in your industry and beyond, and just as importantly those that are not, before your next program goes into production.

02. Engagement is Everything

There is no “one size fits all” in corporate messaging. Get your audience and stakeholders to reveal the mode of communication they’re most likely to engage with, act upon and remember.

03. Presentation Skills

Quit boring your audience. In a world where we are bombarded with communication, most people still struggle to make effective presentations in front of an audience. Whether you are an executive, sales associate, team leader or employee looking to move up – presentation skills and public speaking skills are a must. Great presentations that influence, educate, and inform don’t just happen. Fortunately, Cynthia Kay makes it easy to be a better presenter and spokesperson for your organization. Discover the top 5 presentation mistakes and how to overcome them, the secret to adding the “wow”, how to connect with virtual audiences and strategies to overcome presentation anxiety and become a good public speaker.

04. Media Spokesperson Training

Are you ready for your close-up? As an award-winning broadcaster, Cynthia Kay knows the power of media encounters. To do a great media interview, you need to understand soundbite communication, what reporters are looking for and interview do’s and don’ts. When it comes to crisis communication, her background as an investigative reporter will help you prepare so you can make the best of a bad situation.

05. Creating Video Content

The use of digital media has exploded, but many companies still struggle with creating compelling communications that are strategically aligned with corporate goals. Knowing when not to produce video is as important as knowing the format most likely to match your message. As the winner of numerous Telly Awards and the creator of videos that are used on the national and international scene, Cynthia can provide fresh ideas and messaging for individual projects and corporate campaigns. She can also help with strategies to leverage content across various platforms to deliver outstanding results and value.
