Transformation by Design
Catalyz helps organizations leverage human-centered design (design thinking) to develop customer and employee-centric products, services and experiences. With over 13 years of experience teaching, practicing, and scaling design thinking in organizations ranging from the Fortune 500 to non-profits and schools, we have learned what works and what doesn’t the hard way and specialize in introducing these tools in a way that leverages your existing culture and ways of working.
Clients engage us to improve customer delight, employee engagement and organizational creativity. We do this through our core services of workshops, facilitating design sprints, and embedding with teams as player/coaches to help them practice and apply the methods and mindsets of design thinking. We have also worked with numerous organizations to help them scale design thinking and create lasting capability in their teams.
Our goal is to help your teams respond to the accelerating challenges and opportunities of the 21st century by designing new experiences that delight your customers, retain and grow your employees, and design a brighter future for all.
Our Offerings
We know that each client is unique, and we will work with you to design an engagement that meets your team where they are. We are often called upon to help teams go “beyond the workshop” and learn how to apply the methods of design thinking to real projects and strategic initiatives.
Our Work
We have been fortunate to work with clients in a diverse set of industries, including healthcare, retail, finance, consulting, and nonprofits.
At Catalyz, we strive to partner with clients and co-create programs and materials that honor your existing culture, language, and industry expertise. We combine our expertise with yours to create something extraordinary and impactful together.
