Contents

In the information society, the image of a company is significantly influenced by the images of its managers and key speakers. The look, how to present themselves, to interact with public or the final stakeholders can contribute to the improvement or worsening of a brand. In addition, in the ‘global village’ the public image of the company is constantly influenced by the media and the key speakers through print, television, radio or the Internet.

The course, organized by DAG Communication, aims to provide managers with both the ‘rules’ for constructing a strong image for themselves (look, posture, and language), and direct knowledge of the ‘mechanism’ likely to interact better with the media, thanks to the direct testimony of a journalist of the highest caliber.
A fundamental part of the course is composed from intensive training practices with practical interview tests (television, telephone and in person) that will be made in confidence and individually.
