Rick Thompson

Rick Thompson knows the Media inside out. How it works, in all its form, what rules govern its delivery, how to manage it, what rights you have as a citizen or organisation when dealing with the Media. He also knows how complex organisations work and how to effect change. Having been a senior Manager and Editor within a range of BBC departments, his understanding of the news machine probably has few peers.

Alongside Rick insider's knowledge of this powerful world is a proven ability to get a message across. His own organisation - T-Media - has led many training and development missions in Europe, including projects in Poland, Romania, Czech Republic, Portugal, Switzerland, Croatia, Hungary, Slovakia, France, Germany, Greece, Armenia and Serbia. He has conducted consultancies for broadcasters in Albania, Norway, Netherlands, Serbia and Slovenia, and for international NGOs. Rick's voice will be clearly heard at all levels of your organisation no matter what noise has been created at a time of crisis. And that voice will guide you safely through a moment in your organisation's history which will dictate what shape it is when the crisis has been managed.
