Hello, I’m Stephanie
I’m Stephanie Bredenkamp — coach, people-development specialist and founder of Target Happy Business.
I work with growing businesses to help them develop their people, support managers and create employee experiences that strengthen the business as it grows.
The expertise of an in-house function, with the flexibility your business needs.
Your on-demand people-development partner.
Growing businesses often know that their people matter, but do not yet have dedicated people-development expertise in-house. Others have HR or People teams who need additional specialist support or capacity.
That is where I come in.
I partner directly with businesses to provide tailored support across engagement, leadership, learning, coaching and employee transitions — whenever it is needed, without the cost of building a permanent in-house function.
Experienced, practical and people-centred.
With more than 12 years’ experience across people development and operational leadership, I understand that great people support needs to work in the real world of a growing business.
My work brings together commercial understanding, practical development expertise and confidential, people-centred coaching.

Specialist in bespoke learning and development design
When you work with Target Happy Business, you work directly with me.
There is no handover between a sales team, account manager and delivery team.
I take the time to understand your business, people and priorities, then provide the right support as your needs evolve. That means a more personal, consistent partnership — and practical recommendations grounded in the context of your organisation.
