“I have to say that your seminar yesterday (Extreme Crisis Communications, sponsored by the Cuyahoga County Emergency Management Agency) was one of the best -- if not the best -- seminar I have ever attended. I would describe it as informative, educational, enjoyable, a 'must attend' seminar. Great job. ”

Special Note for Attorneys

We can do our signature seminar - Managing the Media: Lawyers & The Press - in your office for the benefit of your firm's attorneys, corporate counsel and clients.

Visit the Keynote Topics page for more information.

"Every lawyer who acts as litigation counsel or corporate counsel to a business or institution should be familiar with the principles and practical considerations conveyed in Bruce's program because coverage and public reaction can be such powerful factors when a client is involved in litigation or faces some type of business crisis."

Deborah Coleman
Partner Hahn Loeser + Parks LLP

"I have had the pleasure of attending a presentation by Bruce Hennes on media relations. It provided excellent content that is very useful and instructive to lawyers, and provides important insights that enable lawyers to effectively serve clients facing media issues and to do so in an ethical and professional manner."

Gerald Korngold, Former Dean
Case Western Reserve University School of Law

"In my 15+ years of media relations, your presentation was by far the best I have ever attended!! I left the workshop with a renewed enthusiasm for my career choice – and all of the challenges that we must navigate (more regularly than we’d like!). Thank you for your wisdom, wit and “write-on” advice."
