DENVER, June 26, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Renowned investigative journalist Carisa Scott has joined the Maverick Public Relations team to uplevel its media training training modules and services.
Scott, a Peabody Award winner, has teamed up with Maverick Founder Shawna Seldon McGregor to deliver a comprehensive range of media training services, ensuring clients are well-prepared for high-stakes interviews across various platforms.
"There is a common misconception that the relationship between publicists and journalists is adversarial, but nothing could be further from the truth. My professional history with Carisa is a perfect example of this," McGregor said. "As Carisa reported on important issues of the day, we may have not always seen eye to eye. However the importance of delivering service and education from all sides of any news story was always a top priority for both of us. Since she recently joined the Maverick team, Carisa's insights into how to provide reporters meaningful information even when the pressure is high to get the facts delivered in a clear and meaningful way has proved invaluable for our clients."
As an investigative journalist and television news producer, Scott brings first-hand expertise in effectively delivering messages through earned media. Her training focuses on developing clear messaging, handling tough interviews, and mastering delivery techniques.
Scott's addition rounds out Maverick PR's media training team, which includes founder Shawna Seldon McGregor, who has over 25 years of experience, and Bree DeVita, Head of Maverick's New York offices. Scott bolsters the Maverick PR media training module, which also provides one-on-one practice interviews, feedback sessions, and preparation for various interview scenarios and formats.
"Maverick PR has a reputation for personalized, high-impact media coaching," Scott said. "I'm excited to join forces with Shawna and apply my decades of broadcast journalism knowledge to help clients tell their stories successfully."
Together, McGregor and Scott create a powerhouse media training team versed in navigating today's fast-paced news landscape. McGregor is an active member of the Crisis Ready Institute. She is a member of PRSA, where she has earned a certificate in Reputation Management. She also received a certificate in Crisis Communications.
The Maverick Public Relations media training team has booked and staffed thousands of press interviews, from broadcast, such as NBC Nightly News and NPR, to print, such as Wall Street Journal.
