Focused. Clear. Honest. Collaborative. Flexible. Informative. Experienced.

Catalyst facilitates―eases―the path to resolution. As every project and challenge is unique, each approach and working relationship is designed to most effectively meet your group’s specific needs and goals.

Catalyst challenges the players to understand the opportunities and to implement effective solutions. Together, we refine goals and objectives, clarify success factors and deliverables. We guide your teams to probe, explore, focus―and learn as a result.

Here are some basic steps we take.

Discovery & Clarity
What are the needs, expectations, risks, deliverables, terms of engagement, and success factors? What is known and unknown?
If nothing else were achieved from this project - what needs to be accomplished?
Together we clarify the project challenges, objectives and desired results.

Planning
What actions will best achieve the desired outcomes?
Facilitated workshops or focus groups? Action or strategic planning sessions? Team leadership training? Executive or management coaching?

Facilitation
Whether the challenge is a contentious community discussion, a project management team with limited time and multiple tasks, or corporate strategic planning, Catalyst crystallizes issues and motivates the players. We create an atmosphere of focused and results-oriented inquiry, where all input is valued, all possibilities are considered, and energies and resources are focused.

Catalyst helps to: summarize current state of affairs; establish ground rules; communicate key findings and trends; engage energies & resources; verify opportunities; clarify commitments; track & learn from results.

Reflection
Catalyst values review and feedback. What was achieved? What went well, what didn't, and why? How might things be done differently in the future?

Catalyst focuses on results, enlightenment and fun.
