Thrive PR & Communications has relaunched its media and presentation training services, led by technology and business journalist, Brad Howarth as Senior Advisor.

Brad is a journalist and communications specialist with more than 25 years' experience of gathering, translating, and delivering stories across a range of media outlets. He has written for many publications in Australia and around the world, including Business Review Weekly, The Australian, AFR BOSS, GQ Australia and Rolling Stone Australia.

Thrive's expanded range of media and presentation training services includes a half-day program specifically designed to prepare executives to manage communications relating to cybersecurity incidents and crisis situations. It consists of a series of curated courses, designed to enhance participants' media proficiency and presentation delivery.

Brad said: "The cyber response training service is designed specifically for organisations that are keen to test their ability to manage communications in a crisis. With cyber incidents now an unfortunate reality for all organisations, many business leaders are realising that poor communications can be a significant contributor to reputational damage and loss of customer trust.

"Beyond these offerings, we have also developed courses that are designed to improve executives’ storytelling and public presentation capabilities, including group training seminars as well as one-on-one coaching sessions. Our goal is to ensure that everyone has access to the training they need to become more polished presenters."

Key features of Thrive’s training services include tailored training programs, interactive workshops, real-world simulations, post-training resources and feedback, and cyber crisis response training.
