Media interviews can be a great opportunity, but they can also be a great risk. How do you handle the media when they come calling for a quote and you aren't the spokesperson, or you just aren't ready.

MODULE 4 – IN PRACTICE IMPLEMENTING A PIP Ian Wilson jo.docxgilpinleeanna
MODULE 4 – IN PRACTICE
IMPLEMENTING A PIP
Ian Wilson joined MWTCo 3-years ago as a Customer Service Representative. While Ian performs his job
satisfactorily, there are several areas that require improvement:
MWTCo requires CSRs to comprehensively document all client interactions in a program called Sales
Force. These interactions must be documented with 24-hours of the occurrence. This is an important
and effective way for any CSR who speaks with a customer to have a history of interactions with the
customer and to provide exceptional customer service—a goal of the organization.
Ian often answers his personal cell phone while sitting at his desk. This is against company policy as
personal conversations may serve as a distraction from other CSRs who are servicing customers. Ian
knows the policy; but due to child care issues (Ian is a single dad), is overly sensitive to calls from his
son’s school or child care provider. The co does not mind employees taking personal cell phone calls;
however, it requires a CSR to log out of que and step into a private space to take a call. Ian’s fear is that
he may miss a call going through the two aforementioned steps and it may be an emergency.
Below prepare a Performance Improvement Plan for Ian referencing one of the concerns above.
IAN WILSON’S PLAN
PREPARE
• Document the employee’s performance areas
that need improvement
DEVELOP ACTION PLAN
• This action plan should include Specific and
Measurable objectives that are Accurate,
Relevant and Time-bound (otherwise known as
SMART goals).
REVIEW THE ACTION PLAN FOR CLARITY
AND CONCISENESS
• Seek assistance to ensure the document is clear
and absent of emotion as well as viable from a
timeline standpoint.
DELIVER & IMPLEMENT THE PIP
• Meet with the employee to clearly lay out the
areas for improvement and plan of action as
well as possibly modify the action plan slightly
after receiving the employee’s input and
feedback
FOLLOW UP REGULARLY
• The employee and supervisor should establish
regular follow-up meetings (weekly, bi-weekly
or monthly). These meetings should discuss
and document progress toward objectives.
PIP CONCLUSION
• Upon completion of the PIP period, supervisor
and employee review whether the PIP was
successfully completed and determine next
steps including termination or PIP conclusion.

An old cliché states that there is nothing sure in life except for death and taxes. Well, that may be true, but so is the charge that the there is very little truth found in the mainstream media.
From further back than Adolph Hitler, prominent persons used types of media to broadcast their individual agendas, which they hoped would sway the populace to their ways of thinking.

This is a presentation I gave as part of an NIHR masterclass event for its trainees earlier this year. It seemed to go down well and hopefully there are some useful pointers in here for people communicating about health research or science.
Tips for scientists dealing with the mediaDrCameronWebb
The are slides from my presentation on 28 April 2017 at the Sydney Medical School’s Early Career Research (ECR) Showcase, Westmead Institute for Medical Research [http://sydney.edu.au/medicine/research/ecr/showcase.php]. The presentation was designed to provide insights to dealing with the media picked over a decade of engaging with the media and participating in over 300 media opportunities. I've highlighted tips, tricks and some unexpected benefits for researchers interested in media engagement.
A presentation on the issue entitled 'Media Induces Individual Desires'. This is for my Final Year Project majoring in Media Arts at Faculty of Creative Multimedia.
Through the use of overhearing, inwardness, and double-reflection, the shows House, M.D., Doc Martin, and Sherlock indirectly communicated ideas about issues that are salient to today’s world. Attendees at this presentation were shown the connection between literary tropes such as irony/sarcasm, metaphors, and deception and the messages being broadcast. Three specific episodes were highlighted (“Autopsy,” “Erotomania,” and “The Hound of Baskerville”) and attendees’ attention was drawn to explicit messages being communicated.
Examples pulled directly from the three series and discussed in the workshop included the topics of how far one should go to save the life of a terminal cancer patient, inappropriate relationships between doctors and patients, informed consent, drug-addicted medical professionals, knowing yourself, knowing your potential partner well before marriage, being in an ill-matched relationship, and lying to get what you want out of life. Since all of these subjects are issues that students may eventually face in their own lives, it is vital to help them see the conversations happening right before their eyes on primetime television. This workshop’s goal was to get the conversational ball rolling by demonstrating these conversations and getting attendees to take this information back to their students.

Public Health professionals communicate with a variety of audiences in their daily work. While reasonably well-accepted that special consideration be given to low-literate health care consumers in clinical settings, less emphasis has been given to applying health literacy in diverse sectors of public health. Poor health literacy is not limited to those with language or reading skill barriers - only 12% of Americans understand the health information they receive.
As public health professionals we have a responsibility to understand the health literacy barriers. This presentation will provide tips and resources where public health professionals can make a difference in increasing the success of their communication efforts.
While one flu season can pass mildly and with minimal activity, another may hit the country early and hard. CDC health communicators work with subject matter experts and stakeholders to develop messages for a variety of audiences, employing different types of media for effective reach. Due to unforeseen variables, the 2012-2013 flu season posed specific challenges. This presentation will highlight some of those challenges, showcase strategies and messaging used, and preview what’s to come for the 2013-2014 season.
This webinar was the second session in the CALPACT sponsored Health Communication Matters series, which will help participants in all walks of public health to apply health literacy principles to their everyday communications.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
In the Adani-Hindenburg case, what is SEBI investigating.pptxAdani case
Adani SEBI investigation revealed that the latter had sought information from five foreign jurisdictions concerning the holdings of the firm’s foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) in relation to the alleged violations of the MPS Regulations. Nevertheless, the economic interest of the twelve FPIs based in tax haven jurisdictions still needs to be determined. The Adani Group firms classed these FPIs as public shareholders. According to Hindenburg, FPIs were used to get around regulatory standards.

Managing the Media CDPH PR Call 030713
1. Successfully managing the media
if you are ready for them …or not
Jill Oviatt
Public Information
Officer/Manager
Vector-borne Disease Coachella Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District
PR Call - March 2013 “Protecting Public Health Through Research, Development, and Awareness, Since 1928”
2. Road Map
• The risks of unplanned media interviews
• How the media work and what journalists want from you
• How to manage unplanned media interviews when you
are – and when you are not the spokesperson
• How to develop and use key messages
– getting your story in the news
• The importance of non-verbal
communication
Coachella Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District
“Protecting Public Health Through Research, Development, and Awareness, Since 1928”
3. Opportunities and Risks
• Media interviews present great
opportunities, while at the same
time posing significant risks
• One short response can be turned
into a great headline or quote –
great for the news outlet, not
necessarily great for your
organization
• There is no context in a media
interview
• Contact with the media must be
carefully managed
Coachella Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District
“Protecting Public Health Through Research, Development, and Awareness, Since 1928”
4. How the media work…
WHAT SELLS WHAT DOESN’T
Emotion: Drama & Conflict Logic: Facts & dry data
• Pictures and Color •Industry jargon
• Stories about people •Your internal perspective
• Brevity •Long-winded responses
• Hot issues & trends •Complex arguments/issues
• Local stories •Ordinary
• Negative stories •The positive side
Coachella Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District
“Protecting Public Health Through Research, Development, and Awareness, Since 1928”
5. Managing unsolicited media interviews
DO:
• Be pleasant and helpful
• Stay calm
ASK:
• What is your name? Which media outlet do you represent?
• What is your story about?
• What can we do to help you?
• What is your deadline?
• What is your phone number?
Tell the reporter you will forward the information to the appropriate
person and someone will return the call as soon as possible.
Coachella Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District
“Protecting Public Health Through Research, Development, and Awareness, Since 1928”
6. Managing unsolicited media interviews
NEVER:
• Be defensive or hostile
• Give an interview or make a comment on the spot (or get
tricked into it!)
• Automatically agree or refuse a future interview
• Get trapped into confirming or denying anything
• Say “off-the-record” or “no comment”
• Say “I’m not allowed to talk to the media”
• Say anything you don’t want printed or broadcasted
Message: “I’ll forward the information to the appropriate person and
someone will get back to you as soon as possible.”
Coachella Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District
“Protecting Public Health Through Research, Development, and Awareness, Since 1928”
8. There is NO SUCH THING as
“OFF THE RECORD”
When speaking with a journalist
at any time, in any place,
ALWAYS stay ON MESSAGE
Coachella Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District
“Protecting Public Health Through Research, Development, and Awareness, Since 1928”
9. Tricks some reporters use to get quotes
Sympathy - “I understand you may not be the correct
person and I’m really sorry to bother you, but my deadline
is really tight. Can you please just give me some basic
information? I would really appreciate it.”
Intimidation - “What’s wrong? Did your supervisor tell
you to keep quiet? Why are you so scared to just explain
what happened?”
Coachella Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District
“Protecting Public Health Through Research, Development, and Awareness, Since 1928”
10. Tricks some reporters use to get quotes
Coercion - “Don’t you think people have a right to know
what’s going on here? You have the chance to do the right
thing and tell the truth to the public.”
Threats - “Look if you don’t give me a straight answer, we
will just run the story and say your organization refused to
answer questions. Is that what you want? You will make
your company look very bad and I don’t think your boss
will like that.”
Coachella Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District
“Protecting Public Health Through Research, Development, and Awareness, Since 1928”
11. Bridging Phrases
• “The main point is… YOUR MESSAGE”
• “The really important thing is … YOUR MESSAGE”
• “It boils down to this … YOUR MESSAGE”
• “Let’s put this back into perspective … YOUR MESSAGE”
• “I really want to help you but … YOUR MESSAGE
YOUR MESSAGE: “I’m not the right person to talk to, but I’ll
forward the information to the appropriate person and I’ll
make sure they get back to you as soon as possible.”
Coachella Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District
“Protecting Public Health Through Research, Development, and Awareness, Since 1928”
12. Tips in a TV interview ambush
• Remain calm and polite
• Assume you are on air all the time
• Face the interviewer confidently; never run away or put your
hand in front of the lens
• Do not look into the camera lens
• Deliver your message calmly and repeatedly
• Bridge to your questions or message
• Gather necessary information for your spokesperson
• Keep an objective and neutral tone
Coachella Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District
“Protecting Public Health Through Research, Development, and Awareness, Since 1928”
13. Getting the quotes you want in the news
• Media interviews are NOT conversations
• What appears in print or broadcast will not contain the context of
the entire interview
• Keep focused on the end result which is usually just a quote or
soundbite (5 to 10 seconds or 1 or 2 sentences)
• Stay on-message all the time
• Keep your answers short and simple
• If you wouldn’t want to see it or read it
as your quote, then don’t say it
• Every answer you give should be
a quote you would like to see
Coachella Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District
“Protecting Public Health Through Research, Development, and Awareness, Since 1928”
14. The message is more than words!
VISUAL - how
you look and AUDITORY -
what you do how you sound
Prof. Albert Mehrabian
UCLA
“Silent Messages”
1981
CONTENT -
what you say
Coachella Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District
“Protecting Public Health Through Research, Development, and Awareness, Since 1928”
15. NON-verbal messages
Consider what impression you want to create
1. Credible
2. Sincere
3. Ethical
4. Smart
5. Confident
Coachella Valley Mosquito and Vector Control District
“Protecting Public Health Through Research, Development, and Awareness, Since 1928”
16. Keep in mind
• Media interviews can be a great opportunity - or a great risk.
• An interview is not a conversation. It’s just a tool to get quotes for
a news story.
• Almost every news story has a hero and a villain.
Don’t play the role of villain.
• Never do an interview unprepared…even if you ARE the
spokesperson.
– Ask for the reporter’s deadline, develop your messages, practice your
messages, and call them back promptly – everybody wins.
• Never do an interview if you are not the spokesperson.
– Ask for the reporter’s deadline, reassure the reporter you will get the
information to the right person, and then pass the information along.
• Be kind and helpful – and remember the message is more than
just words.

18. Unsolicited Media Contact
WHAT TO DO
• Be pleasant and helpful.
• Stay calm.
• Tell the journalist you will try to help them.
• Contact [media relations officer} at (XXX) XXX-XXXX.
WHAT TO ASK
• What is your name?
• Which media outlet do you represent?
• What can we do to help you?
• What is your deadline?
• What is your phone number?
19. Unsolicited Media Contact
WHAT TO SAY
If you are NOT the spokesperson:
“I’m sorry. I’m not the spokesperson. I’ll forward the
information to the right person and someone will get back to
you as soon as possible.”
If you ARE the spokesperson:
“I’m sorry. I am just about to go into a meeting/on deadline to
finish a report/about to get on a conference call. What is your
deadline? I’ll get back to you before then.”
OR
“I’m sorry. We are still gathering information. If you give me
your contact details, we will be sure to get back to you as soon
as we have the information.”
