As CEO of a global institute, responsible for standards in workplace learning, I was very impressed with not only the content of the programme, but also the design and structure of it. it was engaging, informative, provocative, and impeccably facilitated by Ben Evans who expertly created an effective online/blended learning environment. My team have been full of praise for the course, and gratitude for the decision to put it on for the whole company. The pace and tone was spot on.
— Ed Monk, CEO.
At MAPP we love working with Ben because we feel he really understands who we are and what we stand for. Ben is able to engage in our culture and speak our language, in a positive and engaged manner that really captures attention. It’s these elements that bring in the personal touch and help bolster such a strong relationship.
— Corinne, Head of People Operations.
Really good facilitation. Excellent delivery of material & kept at a good pace.
— Healthy Leadership Masterclass Participant.
I absolutely loved this course! It managed to cover both a breadth and depth of mental health as a whole but also some really specific disorders and situations...the whole thing was so engaging. It felt like we were all really seen and heard as individuals and I really valued Ben’s willingness to share his own stories and experiences as well as his expertise which were so apparent in the way he taught and responded to our questions. I literally think everyone should do this course, it’s so important and I really look forward to building on this knowledge I now have! Thank you.

We’ve worked with Humantalk for a couple of years now and each time their programmes have been incredibly informative with great quality learning resources which have been so useful in the ensuing months. Well-being, resilience and mental fitness have been very much on our agenda recently and Humantalk’s approach fully supported what we were trying to do. Their style of delivery is engaging and yet shows the utmost kindness and sensitivity to the subject matter. The feedback has been excellent and more importantly it has been very powerful in opening up the dialogue with people who otherwise may have remained silent. We wholeheartedly recommend Ben and Humantalk and look forward to continuing to work with them in the future.
— Katy, Group HR Director.
Ben very quickly created a safe and trusting space for our work together, and this allowed us to have honest conversations about how I could develop my leadership skills. Always with a coaching, questioning and empowering style, Ben brought structure and techniques to our sessions which helped me focus on practical ways to progress. I really enjoyed my time with Ben and feel more confident about how to take my next steps on the leadership journey.
— Ed Tait, Director. Coaching client.
So energising when you have a guide with insight, wisdom and curiosity help you navigate through the complexity and noise to coherent simplicity. Thanks Ben Evans. #humantalk
— Jono, Chief of Staff.
Ben brought focus and professionalism, with empathy and humour. He quickly developed a strong understanding of the team and put in place an adaptable framework for training events that suits our team’s strengths and delivered clear, practical objectives. Ben is particularly adept at helping teams who have been involved in the fine detail of a project think through long-term strategic questions which we found extremely helpful.
— Vicky, Director.
An engaging, fun and extremely useful day with lots of opportunities to find out more about each individual team member and learn what our collective areas of strength were and where we needed to improve. Very insightful and useful without any boring waffle! Lots of helpful information and great follow-up to make sure we kept motivated beyond the day. Highly recommend!
— Penny, Operations Director.
We have been working closely with Humantalk over the last 6 months to develop and deliver our internal management training. Their experience was clear from the get-go and their insight and approach were positively challenging and refreshing. It is fair to say that the interventions we are running now have been taken to a new level after working with Humantalk and are underpinned by a common-sense, conversational and relationship-based approach. The feedback from our managers has been superb. I am looking forward to collaborating with Humantalk again on projects we have on the horizon.
— Dan, Learning & Development Manager.
Insightful, challenging and extremely rewarding. Over a period of six months I’ve been given me the space and skill to analyse my own patterns of behaviour, actions, thought processes and future goals. With renewed understanding of my abilities, I have greater confidence to manage and develop both myself and those working in my team. Whatever leadership skills existed beforehand, it was Ben’s astuteness, patience and expertise that have allowed them to flourish. My experience of coaching was eye-opening and I will continue to think and act upon it.
— Millie, Coaching client.
Superb course; extremely well run. Thought provoking, challenging, very positive training. Probably the best workplace training I’ve had.
— Participant. Mental Health First Aid training.
Skilled in both learning design and delivery, taking time to really consult and understand a client’s need ensuring the client is engaged and informed throughout a project. Expertise is combined with warmth and generosity. Highly recommended.
— Lisa, Group HR Director.
A strong grasp of how to bring together different elements and experiences in order to drive growth and change across a sophisticated and diverse senior group of leaders operating in a complex system
