Media Training - Biography

For more than 25 years, Gavin Duffy has been training spokespersons who have to face the media. He is the acknowledged expert in media coaching.  He presented RTE’s first ever business programme, Marketplace, in the 80’s and was a regular on the then fledgling Morning Ireland radio programme.  He left RTE to become CEO of local radio station, LMFM.

In 1992 he set up a media and management consultancy business which owns mediatraining.ie.  He is currently back on TV as one of the dragons in RTE’s Dragons’ Den and is a columnist with the Sunday Independent on economics.

• “Though I am back on TV with the Dragons’ Den, and currently writing for the Sunday Independent on economics, I can assure clients absolute confidentiality and discretion.
  
  It is important for a media coach to keep his hand in, as it were, by performing at the coal face, but it is equally important for clients to know that the work we do together remains strictly confidential, and always has.  That’s why the top Crisis and PR Executives in the country have kindly given me such strong testimonials.”
