Alan Stevens
FPSA PSAE MCIPR Global Speaking Fellow
UK
Alan Stevens is a global expert on remote and virtual delivery. He speaks at and facilitates events from his London studio to any location, and is hugely in demand as a consultant to event professionals who wish to run virtual events.
He is Past President of the Global Speakers Federation, Director of MediaCoach Ltd, an author and journalist, and has been both a TV presenter and expert interviewee. In the latter capacity, he has notched up over 2,000 radio and TV interviews, so is uniquely placed to give insights about the media, and how individuals and organisations can improve their image.
He is a regular conference chairman and facilitator at virtual conferences across a range of topics including Human Resources, Communication and Manufacturing Industries, providing peace of mind and reliability for conference organisers. In the past ten years, he has delivered conferences to Europe, America, Asia, and the Middle East. His relaxed and confident style ensures that events run to a precise timetable, delegates are kept informed of all arrangements, and speakers are introduced and questioned in an entertaining and informative manner.
He is the only person in Europe with professional accreditation in both public speaking (FPSA, PSAE) and public relations (MCIPR).
His entertaining and informative presentations include:
- How to run a virtual conference
- How to build and protect a world-class reputation
- What do Journalists want? (and how to sell it to them)
- Communication secrets of world leaders
His company, MediaCoach, provides coaching in TV and radio skills to CEOs, politicians, celebrities and communication professionals. His clients include Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson and round-the world sailor Dee Caffari, as well as companies including Virgin, BMW, Glaxo, The Dorchester, Sony Ericsson, Guinness World Records, The Dubai Stock Exchange, BMW and Mumm Champagne. The Independent newspaper listed him as "one of the top 10 media experts in the UK".
Despite once presenting a show that no-one watched, and occasionally appearing as a Scottish shopkeeper in an Italian soap, he still appears regularly on radio and television in the UK. His latest book, The Exceptional Speaker, is published by Congruence Press. BBC Presenter Adrian Chiles says "Alan gives you the one thing you need – confidence".
