On-air Talent

Anchoring

Learn to deliver more compelling, polished and powerful narratives that move audiences


There are more outlets for news and opinion than at any time in history. In this supersaturated media environment, it’s harder than ever for anchors and reporters to stand out, maintain their audiences and reach new ones. It is no longer enough for on-air talent to answer the journalistic questions: Who? What? When? Where? Why? Today, anchors and reporters are expected to be master storytellers. Clarity coaches have vast experience in all aspects of storytelling, a resource we bring to media and news companies. The immediate result from a session is the delivery of more compelling, polished and powerful narratives that move audiences.

Each training plan is based on the specific goals and objectives and includes a focus on:

  • Physical presence on the set/in the field

  • Striking a conversational tone

  • Effective interview structuring

  • Calmly handling live, breaking news

    Eliminating the “old-school” delivery

  • Interacting with co-anchors

 WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING

I very much appreciated such a seasoned television journalist taking the time to offer me advice. I came to the session with almost no previous on-air experience and Jim Paymar was patient with me, providing his perspective in a way that was encouraging and constructive. The session helped change the way I look at television news and how my colleagues make a mark on the air. I would heartily recommend Clarity Media Group’s service and Jim in particular.
