The Happy Human Training Company is a Scottish-based consultancy dedicated to enhancing leadership, connectivity, and a culture of trust within organisations. Based in Kirriemuir, Angus, we specialise in delivering impactful, human-centred training and coaching solutions that foster resilience, clarity, and connection in today's dynamic work environments. Specialising in working in areas such as challenging workplace behaviours and supporting teams working with heavy emotional content, we are active across the U.K and work with clients both in-person and using virtual technology.

At the heart of our approach is the belief that connectivity and community are foundational to performance. Organisations that nurture psychological safety and trust have cultures where individuals tend to be more resourceful, collaborative, and courageous. Resilience and adaptability grow from a sense of shared ownership and belonging. However, a thriving community isn't automatic, it requires intentional nurturing, knowledge, and skill development. We partner with organisations to cultivate connection from within, undertaking a shared journey that nurtures and enhances personal awareness and confidence alongside the communication skills that are essential in navigating ambiguity and change.

Leadership Development

Blending expert insights with practical applications, our Leadership Programmes include options such as coaching support and Insights Discovery profiling, tailored to meet the evolving needs of your business.

Management Development

We offer a suite of virtual and in-person workshops designed to equip managers with essential skills and confidence. These workshops cover a range of topics and can be accessed individually or as part of a comprehensive development programme aimed at creating lasting impact.
