Director, Consultation Group
Debbie provided media training for my senior team. It was a privilege to get to know her personally and watch her at work. Utterly professional and one of the warmest, empathetic people around, she is abundantly blessed with skills in communicating, networking and various media.
Management Consultant
I have worked with Debbie Binner on a variety of projects delivering media training and presentation skills training to high profile clients in the public and private sector. She is both an excellent trainer and a perceptive communicator. She has the experience and confidence to deal with executives at the highest level. They always come away having learned something new. Debbie has the enviable knack of being able to take a complex subject and make it easy for the relevant audience to understand.
Journalist and filmmaker
I highly recommend that people work with Debbie Binner. She is dynamite!
RADA and voice coach
I cannot believe that Debbie had our senior executives moving around a stage reciting Shakespeare. Our performance training pushed us out of our comfort zones. But the results have been outstanding - we now look for the theatrical content in our pitches and this is helping us to stand out from our competitors. Highly recommend.
Managing Director, Consulting and Accountancy
I was offered a great promotion at work, but I felt physically sick at the thought of taking it. I knew I’d have to speak to huge numbers of my clients in large halls - I cannot explain how terrified that made me feel. Debbie’s support and input was just amazing. I wanted to give up on numerous occasions, but she wouldn’t let me. We worked out where the fear came from and slowly and surely I got to grips with it. I’m still terrified sometimes, but I took that job and I’m now up for the next promotion. I couldn’t be happier.
PR and Marketing director, retail
Debbie organised and ran a superb PR and media awareness programme for myself and fellow directors. The content was highly relevant and the delivery was both interesting, professional and fun!
CEO, Financial Services
I have worked with Debbie on several projects, providing media and performance training workshops, alongside the corporate positioning workshop that I provide. I have found that her background in TV journalism and communications provides her with an invaluable insight into the workings of the media, which together with her highly professional manner ensures that she provides real value to all delegates. It always impresses me to see the dramatic improvement in the confidence and skills of the delegates she brings about over the course of the day, and I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who wants to equip themselves with the media relations skills required to work effectively with the media.
Director, Marketing and Branding
I commissioned Debbie to help me and my team to better understand how to pitch and run workshops on Zoom. Engagement and building rapport are so key to our work, but we were struggling with how to come across. Debbie was simply amazing at building instant trust and engagement and we've had such fun making zoom work for us. She is also expert in understanding all parts of the pitch process and gave us excellent tips on content. Our clients compliment us on the difference in terms of how we look, our backgrounds and the content of our pitches. Money well spent.
