Giving an Interview

Learn how to effectively deliver information or be interviewed on camera to build ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV’s image and manage its reputation.

Know your key messages

Aim to develop three to four main messages to be used when answering media questions.

Make sure your messages

  • Cover the most important thing(s) you want to get across to the interviewer
  • Are short and to the point (one to two sentences per message)
  • Are direct and action-oriented
  • Support ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV’s main priorities
  • Are in positive and conversational language
  • Don’t ignore the elephant in the room (controversial hot topic), because you’ll be asked about it
  • Are supported by facts, examples or interesting anecdotes
  • Instill trust in the audience

Move from high-level to personal

Provide a high-level perspective on the trend you discuss and its impact. Then share a local or personal experience to connect the audience to the story.

  • Anecdotes are great especially when sharing good news
  • Be authentic, smile and show excitement when appropriate
  • Keep it simple and focus on what’s unique
