Problems & Opportunities We Address
In today's rapidly evolving technological landscape, organizations face numerous challenges:
Failed Transformations
Studies consistently show low success rates for large-scale transformations. Around 70% fail or partially fail to achieve their goals, with the largest value loss of 35% occurring during implementation.
Leadership Engagement Impact
Transformations succeed when leaders are actively involved. This makes them 1.4x more likely to act as thought partners and embed changes by substantially reforming core processes.
Human Element Under Pressure
Only 23% of employees feel engaged at work, while 44% report significant daily stress. Replacing managers can cost up to 200% of their salary due to disengagement-driven turnover.
Untapped Engagement Potential
Business units with high employee engagement achieve 18% higher productivity and 23% higher profitability compared to those with low engagement.
These challenges present opportunities for organizations that are ready to transform and adapt. Catalyst² helps you navigate these waters with confidence.
