Tiffany has great industry knowledge, and it was a pleasure to work with her. Her insights have been so valuable as my team develops a new product. I look forward to working again with her in the future”.

I find this a much more beneficial way to internalise the learnings and ensure I have the correct understanding of how to apply them to my projects”.

 “It was a real success, coming together in so many positive ways and realizing our goals and expectations. Imaginations were stretched, a bar has been raised and seeds planted that we can hope will bear innovative fruit in the months and years to come. It would not, and could not, have happened without your contribution -- your experience, your expertise, your hard work.”  

The Yukon Government

“It’s official. Tiffany St James is incredible! Her knowledge of social tech actually makes my brain hurt.”

Peter Kerwood, MD of Altitude, Millbank

“Tiffany has particular expertise in social media, having worked at No 10 and in the war rooms with the Met Police. She helped us become an authentic brand in that space, without diluting the brand. She brought the insight that you can manage a big corporate company through social channels while maintaining the human side of it.” 

Claudio Concha, Head of Digital Media, Big Lottery Fund 

“It was an absolute pleasure having you as the chair at last week’s Telegraph’s Digital Leaders conference. I’m sure you won’t be surprised to hear that the feedback we received from all the attendees at the conference was extremely positive. We were trying to break the mould with this event and to address digital transformation from a business and commercial perspective. All the feedback suggests that we achieved our aim and delivered a high-level conference that demonstrated the commercial potential for all types of business through digital implementation.” 

The Telegraph

“Tiffany, Thank you so much for joining us at our Inspiring event yesterday. Your presentation was fantastic and our clients were suitably delighted with the content.”

“Thank you for your enthusiasm, professionalism and spirit over the 2 days. It was a real pleasure to have you as part of our team and the feedback on your sessions yesterday has been tremendous!”

Richard Jacobs, Head of Commercial Strategy, Real and Smooth Radio

Her reputation as social media leader both within the public and private sectors preceded her, but she certainly lived up to the billing. Tiffany is an engaging, knowledgeable and a charming event speaker, a diplomat, a futurist and a mine of useful information. I would recommend her highly as an event speaker. Another speaker described her as “a superstar” and I second that.”
