Washington, DC (I-Newswire) November 2, 2011 - New York, NY– Specialty communications firm CommCore Consulting Group, is expanding its capabilities for preparing researchers, physicians and subject matter experts to present some of the most prestigious global medical conferences.

The new and expanded offerings include Thought Leadership Communications Coaching, Facilitation Skills, and Facilitator/Moderator Services.

With its expanded capabilities, CommCore provides support and services for additional conference activities including company-sponsored investor presentations, roundtable discussions, internal organization addresses, and regulatory testimony.

Thought Leadership Communications Coaching – CommCore has re-tooled its best-practice advanced teaching modules to go beyond presentation skills to an intensive, tailored, leadership communications program that is typically conducted one-on-one. In addition to the essential communication skills, elements in this program include; rapport-building, active listening and executive presence.

How a panel facilitator manages the panelists can affect a facilitator’s overall impression, credibility/believability or an up/down vote. CommCore has developed a specific program to coach KOLs, executives, advocates, association directors and others on how to be the most skilled facilitators.

Facilitator/Moderator Services –CommCore has recruited the best facilitators in the industry who can run panels, advisory boards, brainstorming/messaging sessions, or even emcee an event. We then deliver a comprehensive report that includes work product – framed/formed messages, take-aways, compiled, organized and actionable feedback. We recognize that the best facilitator is not just a good host, but plays a critical role in the success of the organized discussion group and provides a tangible deliverable.

"Providing value-added services during these medical meetings is something CommCore has done throughout our history,” said Andrew Gilman, President and CEO at CommCore. "We have adapted as these conferences evolve and we know how to increase an organization’s positive impact through communications."
