Media Appearances

This is for people who are expected to make television appearances, radio broadcasts or give comments to the press. ARK's team can include former BBC newscaster Frances Coverdale to build experience of cross-examination. We look at:

• Framing key messages
• Controlling the message
• Style and delivery
• Handling difficult questions
• Confident demeanour
• Working with the camera and microphone

Coaching is particularly useful before a scheduled media appearance. We also deliver coaching and workshops for executives who want to develop the necessary skills in case they’re needed in a hurry.

Dyslexia in the Workplace Almost three million adults in the UK workforce suffer from dyslexia. Most people associate the condition with impaired reading skills, but in fact symptoms are more wide-ranging, including problems with maths, prioritising, absorbing and communicating information accurately and completing tasks in sequence. Adults with undiagnosed dyslexia have often developed sophisticated coping strategies, but can hit a wall when given autonomy over managing their day and their workload.

ARK now offers coaching support for dyslexia, including: dyslexia awareness for HR professionals; diagnostic testing; and coaching support for dyslexia sufferers and their line managers. We can help dyslexic people implement highly effective self-management action plans to reduce stress for themselves and their colleagues.
