Sound familiar?
Connecting With People Shouldn’t Feel Complicated.
Most people aren’t “bad at people.” They’ve just never had a place to practise, get honest feedback, and work out what feels natural for them. If any of these feel familiar, you’re in good company:
Not knowing how to start a conversation
Overthinking what to say before (and after) you say it
Feeling uncomfortable in unfamiliar social situations
Struggling to express your opinions
Finding networking awkward
Feeling nervous during presentations
Having difficulty building rapport
Misunderstanding social signals
Relying on scripts instead of natural conversation
Our approach
Confidence Is Built Through Connection.
Communication isn’t a talent you either have or don’t. It improves with practice, honest feedback, better listening and real-world experience. Coaching gives you a supportive space to do all four.
01
Authentic Confidence
Express yourself in a way that feels like you — not a rehearsed persona.
02
Conversation Skills
Start conversations, ask better questions and keep things flowing without overthinking every word.
03
Social Awareness
Notice tone, context and different communication styles — without jumping to conclusions about what people “really” think.
04
Emotional Intelligence & Empathy
Listen to understand, recognize your own reactions and respond with care.
05
Personal Presence
Show up clearly and calmly — in meetings, networking events and one-to-one conversations.

Your coach
Meet Perry Griffin.
Perry is a sales and business development professional with experience in technology sales, account management, presentations, prospecting and relationship-building — and he has trained business development representatives along the way.
That work taught him something simple: the best conversations don’t sound scripted. They come from listening, asking meaningful questions, understanding different personalities, and being comfortable enough to be yourself.
The Human Element is built on that belief. Perry’s coaching is practical, energetic and personable — focused on real situations you face, not generic motivation.
How it works
Three simple steps.
Book a Free Consultation
A relaxed 15-minute call to talk about what you’d like to improve and whether coaching is a good fit.
Identify Your Communication Goals
We pinpoint the specific situations you want to handle better — a first conversation, an interview, a presentation.
Practise, Improve, and Build Confidence
Live exercises and role-play, constructive feedback, and a personal action plan for real-world practice between sessions.
Is this therapy?
No. The Human Element offers communication and confidence coaching. It is not therapy, counselling or mental-health treatment. If you’re dealing with anxiety, depression or other mental-health concerns, a licensed professional is the right person to talk to — coaching can sit alongside that support.
Will you teach me scripts or pickup lines?
No. Scripts tend to make conversations feel stiff. We focus on listening, curiosity, self-awareness and practice, so how you communicate feels natural and honest.
Can you teach me to read minds or spot lies from body language?
No — and be cautious of anyone who says they can. Body language and tone are useful context, but they’re often ambiguous. We practise noticing cues and checking your assumptions, not reading minds.
Do you guarantee results?
No. Progress depends on your goals and how much you practise. What we can promise is a structured, supportive process with honest feedback and clear exercises.
Where do sessions happen?
Online by video call, so you can book from anywhere in Canada or the United States. Times are shown in your own time zone.
