a warm welcome from our ceo... We do the human part of digital transformation. Our people-first approach to digital transformation centres on culture, change and skills. We help you to transform your workplace for the digital age through twenty years experience in change management, change leadership and digital skills. To be a master of change is to become friends with change. The more open you are to change, actively looking for the opportunities it brings, the more you become in control of your situation. You grab your situation with both hands and you make it work. It s a great place to be. For almost twenty years Katapult Partners and its sister company Think Solutions with whom it shares a delivery team, have been making real change happen with some of the largest and most prestigious organisations in the world. Whilst the terminology, landscape and rationale is different now, the general principles of transformation really haven t changed very much at all. Katapult Partners applies the principles we have been using for decades to the new digital flavour of business change, helping organisations looking to drive more customer value, operational efficiency and competitive advantage through exciting modern technologies. Change can be hard. People are often fearful of it, and resist it, or stay on the fence. Some of the reasons your employees may be scared or hesitant of change are a general fear of or discomfort with the new and unknown; change fatigue (too much change, too fast, and a we ve heard it all before mentality); not knowing or understanding the predictable stages of change we all go through (the change curve); leaders running ahead with the change whilst the rest of the organisation has barely learned to walk; a feeling that change is being forced on them; a lack of understanding of the reasons for the change; and a general feeling of collective negativity or apathy surrounding the change. Overcoming all of this will be perhaps the most important thing you invest in - it s certainly evidenced as the highest risk factor for making a success of digital transformation. We built Katapult Partners to help with just this. Our wonderful business offers a high quality solutions catalogue for an array of human-centric challenges that every organisation reimagining itself for the digital world is now facing. Thank you so much for sharing in our story. Elisabet vinberg hearn Chief Executive Officer 2 KATAPULT PARTNERS 2019 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
