Debra Corey

After 20+ years as an award-winning and respected HR leader, I now provide consulting, keynotes and leadership workshops/training to inspire and help organizations get their HR strategies, initiatives and culture right.

I’m on a mission to make a difference by rebelliously challenging traditional HR ways (because the world has changed) to design and deliver HR programs to support their people (because they deserve it) to help businesses succeed (because they need to).

Led by a mission to pay it forward and my company values of opening the door to possibilities 💡and creating magic 🪄, I help companies make meaningful and lasting change that’s uniquely led by their strategy and aligned to their values and culture. No one-size fits all approach from me, because no company and workforce is exactly the same.

I’m a champion and leader of the HR rebelution, driving change to make a better workplace (and world), one where our people can be themselves, feel valued and appreciated, and ultimately do their best work.

I can help you:
⏺ Develop your people and engagement strategy using ‘The Engagement Bridge™’ model from my book “Build it: The Rebel Playbook to Employee Engagement.”

⏺ Discover, develop and embed your company values using the approach from my book “Bringing Your Values Out to Play” and my DIY Values Toolkit.

⏺ Develop recognition strategies and programs using the ‘Recognition Pyramid’ model from my book “Appreciate it! The Playbook for Employee Recognition.”

⏺ Develop communication strategies and approaches using the ‘IMPACT’ model from my book “Effective HR Communication.”

⏺ Develop other HR strategies/programs in areas such as reward, benefits, wellbeing, job design, performance management, etc.

⏺ Deliver a keynote speech, workshop or training program for your event, management team or workforce to inspire, motivate and educate them.

Why choose me:
🌟Use what I’ve learned (and unlearned) from 20+ years as an HR leader, interviewing 200+ companies for my books, and consulting organizations.

🌟Have depth and breadth of experience (not a one-trick pony), helping you join the dots to have programs work together effectively.

🌟Do things in my own unique style, with a sprinkling of humor, inspiration and storytelling. “It’s not often you can find someone who can educate, excite and entertain all at once”.

🌟Best-selling author of 6 books.
