Buckley Fellows are invited to participate in a media training workshop with Michael Lehmann on
November 13, 2026, from 1pm to 3pm.
How would you prepare to go on national TV or pitch investors on your startup? Media trainer Michael Lehmann will explain how to prepare for major public speaking opportunities, as well as how strengthening those same underlying skills will make you a more compelling communicator among friends, in classroom discussions, and in job interviews. Mr. Lehmann draws on his experience as a stand-up comedian (seriously) and preparing leaders for hundreds of national TV hits. Whether it’s coaching a Fox Business regular or a Cursor employee for a main-stage presentation at a European tech conference, his workshop will help you maximize your ability to communicate in high-stakes moments.

He works with founders, executives, and former senior government officials and has prepared speakers for more than 400 national cable news appearances across CNBC, CNN, Fox Business, Fox News, MSNBC, and Newsmax. He has also conducted more than 380 mock interviews under real conditions. Mr. Lehmann has a background in campaigns, Congress, and nonprofits. Before launching Lehmann's Terms, he spent six and a half years working in energy and climate communications, including roles in the U.S. House and at a national nonprofit.
