A founder's voice is the brand's most powerful asset — and most executives walk into interviews and keynotes without preparation. JBC media training closes the gap. We prepare spokespeople for every interaction, from a five-minute on-camera hit to a thirty-minute conference fireside.
Sessions are run by senior publicists who have prepared founders for the New York Times, the Today Show, CNBC, and panels at TIME 100. We work on messaging discipline first — the three things that have to land in any interview — then delivery, body language, and the recovery techniques for when a question goes sideways.
The work compounds with the rest of the program. We have secured more than 750 speaking opportunities at TED, SXSW, TechCrunch Disrupt, and TIME 100 — and each one is prepped against the same messaging framework, so the founder builds a consistent public voice across every stage they take.
Mock interviews on camera, with playback and coaching on cadence, eye contact, and the bridge phrases that pull a tough question back to your message.
Talking points, rehearsals, and Q&A drilling for conference keynotes, fireside chats, and panels — with the messaging framework baked into every answer.
Live scenario drills on the questions you do not want to answer — competitors, controversy, layoffs, regulatory — until the recovery is reflexive.
Year-round application and pitching for the speaking opportunities — TED, SXSW, Disrupt, TIME 100 — that build the founder's platform.
