THE NEW GENERATION OF COMMUNICATION TRAINING.

David Sheepshanks CBE, Founding Chairman, St George’s Park

Communication is the bottom line.

Debate Mate Ltd. an innovative global business that uses the fundamentals of debating to teach communication and leadership skills across the world – from school children in Dubai to hotel managers in Shanghai. Debate Mate is broadly divided into Corporate, Education and Online arms, but there is significant crossover between the three, and our major clients are schools, large NGOs, governments, individual professionals and corporates.

Debate Mate Ltd. is the business powering social change through our charitable arm Debate Mate Schools.

COMMUNICATION TRAINING

Communication training from the classroom to the boardroom

Debate Mate Corporate offers communication training to professionals at all stages of their career. We have worked with apprentices and trainees up to Board level executives and CEOs across legal, finance, media, sport, hospitality and retail sectors. Our training ranges from a half-day ‘Fundamentals‘ workshop in-house at a firm, to a bespoke Executive Coaching series with individuals. We also offer a unique pitching course that goes beyond the traditional focus on narrative-building and storytelling by adding the rigour of evidence-based argumentation and the ability to respond on the spot to challenges.

Outside of the office environment, Debate Mate also runs quarterly communication workshops in partnership with Intelligence Squared for individuals from all backgrounds to attend.

Debate Mate also offers brand engagement and messaging consultancy, and have increasingly been asked to curate firms’ ‘Away Days’ and conferences.

Finally, we are currently designing a robust programme to address the needs of companies, large and small, following the implementation of the Apprenticeship Levy.
