At Catalysis we offer consultancy services in three main categories:

Category 1: Business Planning

Taking the entrepreneur from the initial concept through to a completed business plan is a process that Catalysis excels in. The business plan is built on a sound understanding of key business principles coupled with an exploration of the business concept to be encapsulated in the plan.

The maxim 'failing to plan is planning to fail' lies at the heart of this holistic approach where the involvement of the originators of the concept throughout the process ensures completion of a business plan that is complete, appropriate and above all functional.

Category 2: Strategy Development and Implementation

Catalysis works closely with clients to develop and implement strategies that will facilitate their success in the market. The approach is very much inclusive with the client team actively working on issues and developing solutions with strategic intent.

The bulk of the work is accomplished in facilitated workshop sessions using a set of proven strategy development tools that 'force thought' among the participants. Assistance with the implementation of the strategy is also provided where required.

Category 3: Post-training support

The ability to implement and benefit from training may sometimes be blocked due to the focus on more 'immediate' needs in the business. Post training support means that the participants who have been involved in the training are assisted in the implementation of the tools and techniques in the workplace. This supported action in the organisation creates a higher level of effectiveness of the training activity and so delivers a significantly better return on investment.

This consultancy is delivered in a coaching style and is best suited to working either one-on-one or in small groups of 5 or less in a project-oriented manner.
