“Media Training Worldwide is flat out better than any other presentation training firm we have ever used. They get better results in one day of training than other training companies do in 2 day seminars. The bottom line is that Media Training Worldwide changes our executives for the better; when they leave a Media Training Worldwide workshop they speak with much more confidence and passion. TJ Walker has made radical and permanent positive transformations with many of our employees. I can’t imagine using any other presentation training firm.” ~ Jim Miller |

Since then, I have given dozens of speeches and am now invited frequently for keynotes." ~ Mary Lou Quinlin |

Testimonials:
"My name is Michael Gallant and I am the director of public relations for EMC Corporation. We were fortunate to have TJ Walker in for a day of public relations and media training and I can tell you his approach was superb. He was able to help my entire team operate more efficiently (and) maximize their message penetration to their audience. I can tell you his pace was incredible, he was extremely articulate and he got the whole group involved. We really enjoyed the day."
~Michael Gallant
EMC
TJ, I had the opportunity to present to a group of 500 today. You saved my life. It went really well. All pictures and minimal notes. The cool thing about creating an image based presentation is that when one seeks out and adds the images to the deck, the talking points get burned into ones brain, and things tend to flow more smoothly--at least that how it worked out for me. I even made a point of asking strangers for their opinion after the speech. I asked for their input--I suggested that they could be honest because they'd never see me again in their lives. Again, thanks so much for the lessons. You've helped me grow as a presenter.

TJ was able to make me see quickly my strengths and weaknesses in public speaking, and how to correct these faults. My fear of standing before an audience was decreased in one session.

"The launch of Media Training Worldwide, is a great opportunity for the vast majority of Indian professionals, to acquire skills to balance substance and style. Even leading business schools, do not offer such expertise and I think the entry of Media Training Worldwide, with their unique modules and critique techniques, provides the necessary fillip, especially in dealing with the Media and Presentation Skills."
