The Apprentice 2009: Debra Barr
Debra Barr
Age: 24
Career: Senior Sales Consultant
Qualifications: BA in English Literature
Lives: Surrey
Outspoken sales-woman Debra was awarded “mouth of the year” at her office Christmas party and confesses to being a bit tenacious. Buckinghamshire-born Debra considers herself to be a direct and driven sales-woman with a passion for business … and a love of horses. She has had to fight illiteracy in her youth having struggled through her primary school years when, aged 10, she had the reading age of a six-year-old. Embodying her belief in overcoming objections, Debra went on to study English Literature at university. Inspired by Bill Gates and Sir Richard Branson, she is a go-getter who would rather ask for forgiveness than permission.
She says: “When I set my sights on something I have to make sure I get it. I am very cautious and only let the people that I can trust see the softer side of me.”

Thanks!
Debra shows passion, tenacity and leadership – you have to be autocratic in business, maybe she just needs to mellow alittle and she will cruuise thru. Go Go Go Deb.

So Debra answered back to Sugar’s yes-man Nick Hewer. So what ? It is high time that someone put that sycophant in his place. Debra has what it takes and if Alan Sugar is as shrewd as he thinks, she will win.
