The Smith & Harroff speaker training course fully prepares participants to become adept at standard, professional communication techniques — ranging from how to handle on-camera news interviews to how to succeed in confrontations with hostile audiences. However, unlike most training programs, our course offers an extra dimension that is essential to persuasive communications on controversial topics: we equip our participants with insight into the overall dynamics of your issue and specific messages that should prove successful in gaining public support.

A major objective of the Smith & Harroff training will be to increase the speakers’ confidence and effectiveness in media interaction. Smith & Harroff makes extensive use of role-playing simulations. A major feature of the simulations is a series of on-camera drills, followed by video playback and critiques by the course instructors.
