Specialist media interview training For both new and established politicians and public leaders. Tailored coaching for TV, radio, online and print. Delivered at your venue or my London, UK training studio
Proven track record Over the past 30+ years, I've successfully coached everyone from Presidents' of countries to local councillors, heads of public bodies to health service leaders.
Bringing authenticity back to politics A unique methodology that's at odds with the traditional approach to media training. Focusing on the person rather than the "tricks" to change hearts and minds
Delivering distinctive leadership personalities Free of the "too polished, media-trained" personas that often dominate public life and irritate an increasingly cynical audience
Clarity, confidence and competence An authentic, clearly articulated message with interviews delivered in a "conversational style" that just "feels right"
Genuinely different Quick, effective and in-tune with modern audiences and the modern media. No fluff, no nonsense, just powerful results
"Well-worth every penny"
"Well respected, the standard was amazing"
"Extraordinarily concentrated, public speaking at the deep end"
"At the forefront"
"The turning point was coaching from Glenn Kinsey"
"Politicians careers have been turned around by Glenn Kinsey"
"The top celeb communications coach"
"Towards the end of the day a new Hannah had emerged"
"Glenn Kinsey is THE image doctor"
"Past clients include Olympic sports stars"
"Turned fantasy into a reality"
"Quite staggered at how good the participants became"
"Well worth the money"
"Glenn Kinsey is regularly engaged to 'up the game' of big-name presenters and celebrities"
