Training and Coaching for Personal and Business Transformation  
 
Welcome to our website!  We are a Learning and Development Consultancy, devising "needs led outcome focused" interventions rather than "off the shelf" training packages, this ensures that the solutions we provide you with are creative, relevant and fit for purpose.
We are experienced change-facilitators equipped to support you in navigating your way through ambiguity to create targeted action.  Creating positive change requires personal choice, we all have untapped potential and the capability to develop behavioural flexibility for success as individuals or within a business context.  At catalyst NLP we believe in your potential to make the changes you desire to create the results you deserve.  A constant reality in life is that "change happens", so standing still is not an option if you wish to grow and thrive.  Developing your ability to deal with change and even instigate it is perhaps one of the most essential life tools of the 21st Century.  Charles Darwin said " It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the most responsive to change". 

We offer a wide range of training, coaching and facilitation throughout the Southwest, we also train NLP in Devon and Cornwall accredited through the Association of NLP.  We engage in a variety of projects, adopting innovative approaches to identify and add choices, whilst creating change". 

As specialists in personal effectiveness and change management, we assist you to define your future and choose your route, whilst creating your own rules.  We provide a professional learning and development consultancy service to: pinpoint your greatest opportunities; utilise your resources in the most powerful way; and ensure your change efforts are rewarded.

  • It may be that you require a little help in finding your direction, establishing and maintaining motivation and taking action
  • Perhaps you have started your journey and for any number of reasons lost momentum, seeking help to get back on track
  • You may simply be aiming to truly optimise a currently positive situation, refining and developing your "edge" to really maximise your potential

We are experienced in working with individuals and businesses, including the public, private and third sector, to create bespoke solutions.  Developing an understanding of your key relationships and the wider "system" you live and work within is essential to cater for your unique needs.   We prefer a consultative approach, since this ensures the support and interventions we provide are appropriate for your individual requirements, steering away from pre-prepared training packages.  You might be thinking, how can they do this in a cost effective way?  We can provide this through having a vast range of experience within the field of learning and development to draw from.  We also take regular action to update our skills and understanding within this arena.  The workshops and programmes we provide you with are therefore fresh, aligned to your culture and highly responsive to any current climate.  We apply NLP methodology in our approach to coaching and consultancy working as "change-catalysts" to help you to reach your individual or organisational goals.  The primary support offered by catalyst NLP is through bespoke workshop and programme design and facilitation, one to one coaching, team coaching, business consultancy and soft skills interventions such as psychometrics. 

Our catalyst NLP training programmes are certified at introduction (diploma), practitioner and master practitioner levels and we can provide tailored NLP workshops linked to the application of NLP within specific fields such as "NLP and Business Negotiation", "NLP and Teams", "NLP and Teaching", "NLP and Coaching" and "NLP and Sport"...   In addition to our NLP training in Cornwall and the South West, our broader range of learning and development provision incorporates a rang eof applied psychology principles sunch as emotional intelligence and transactional analysis.  We do of course from time to time offer open programmes, these are however theme based rather than restrictive in their content, taking a highly facilitative approach emphasising the needs of the group /client
 
Outdoor Experiences
 
Living and working primarily in Cornwall provides opportunity (where appropriate) to use the spectacular environment this corner of the UK offers for change work.  Where possible we encourage use of the outdoor environment to provide an additional dimension to the training and coaching we offer. 
 
What better way to develop state management techniques than working within the wide open spaces or rugged terrain of North Cornwall.  Like many people we are inspired by the natural beauty and sense of mystery Cornwall holds, simply watching a sunset on Perranporth beach is a grounding experience which can put even the most complex issues into perspective.
 
NLP is about the mind and body, as is personal effectiveness, we cannot maximise the potential of one without the co-operation of the other and active experiences therefore hold great potential for personal growth.  Balancing experience with introspection together with sharing NLP theories and techniques is essential to bringing this methodology to life.  Our aim is to ensure that once we have worked together, you can actively apply NLP to enhance your ability to manage yourself within a personal and / or business context.   
 

The Value of Good Questions

 

What do you want?...  NLP asks this question and it is a pretty good place to start. If you don't know what you want how can you ever know if you have achieved it?  Here are some other useful questions you might like to consider to begin creating positive change...
 
  • Do you know what you want, and if not, what needs to happen for you to know?
  • Do you have clear aspirations or simply dreams and can you tell the difference? 
  • What could be possible? 
  • How are you currently limiting yourself and what alternative choices do you have? 
  • What is most important to you and do you know your core values?
  • Which behaviours and habits work for you and which are not serving you well?
  • How, if at all, are you closer today to achieving your goals than you were yesterday?
  • What will you be able to look back on next year and say "I was proud of that"?
  • What have you learned about yourself in the last week that can help you next week?
