“The training I received from Mike Nikitas in media relations, presentations skills, public speaking, and crisis management proved to be extremely valuable to me in my role as the President of the Mississippi State Medical Association. During the COVID-19 crisis, I was thrust into the public forum of how physicians would respond to helping the citizens of our state. Furthermore, as part of the Governor’s medical advisory team, I had to give television, radio, and newspaper interviews as well as manage our social media platform. I was and continue to be extremely grateful for the lessons that I learned from Mike during this challenging time.”
