Thoroughly enjoyable. I was apprehensive beforehand but found the training extremely useful and interactive. I feel a lot more confident now if I need to speak to the media (old or new!).

As an international law firm DLA Piper strongly believes it is essential that our people are trained in communication skills such as key messages and delivery techniques. We have used Arti for both small groups and one to one communication and presentation skills sessions. Arti has great experience, is insightful, disarming and pleasurable to work with.

I hired Arti to run an effective communications workshop for my fast track exec leadership programme. From the outset Arti made the group feel relaxed and her practical approach to mastering the art of effective communication was extremely innovative and the group left with a stock of useful tips and tools. Most impressive was she achieved this in just half a day. I’ll certainly be inviting her back again this year.

The structure was good (advice, practice, feedback) plus how to do it well/badly. Overall, very enjoyable, pragmatic and very helpful training.

The media training I did with Arti really helped me focus on my key messages. I had already done some media interviews, but now I better understand what the media wants and as a result have built stronger relationships with the industry, with some great results. Highly recommend this to anyone – I don’t know why I didn’t do it sooner!

I had a full day of coaching with Arti and have subsequently found the areas we covered to be extremely useful in my day to day role at Aston Villa. The course was very practical and enjoyable at the same time, and not a moment was wasted. Thoroughly recommended

Arti was the compere for the ceremony for the Apps for Good Awards, our biggest annual event where we bring together our students, teachers, partners and volunteers. She brought polish and professionalism to the ceremony, as well as enthusiasm and humour. From the start Arti was a pleasure to work with – flexible, thoughtful and thorough, and she provided really useful insights on the ceremony to make it the best possible experience for everyone. She also made an extra effort to meet our students and get to know us as an organisation. We thoroughly enjoyed working with her and would highly recommend her.

Arti made me feel at ease immediately and shared some vital tips that I was able to utilise in the interviews that we filmed on the media training day and that I can now use in other presentation situations… I am delighted with the outcome and, most importantly, our professional associates and clients have given me excellent feedback about the interview. It has achieved the objective of giving a great overview of my company’s service proposition and ethos and contributed to an increase in business from new clients.

The way we worked together to get the message and presentation right really made a difference. Some simple skills and techniques which make the difference time after time – delivering speeches which get across point and personality.

Extremely thought provoking and not just useful in a media setting but to take into your working day.

Arti is an inspirational coach. Her combination of knowledge and enthusiasm makes the training both effective and enjoyable. The training is pitched carefully to be appropriate for the audience but pushes you beyond your comfort zone. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Arti to others who want to improve their media handling skills.
