Business Coaching & Mentoring

Our coaching and mentoring services provide a safe space for executives and leaders to think out loud, crystallise their goals and take action to achieve real growth. 

We can help you to: –

  • Articulate the vision, mission and values of your business
  • Plan your strategy
  • Troubleshoot issues and challenges
  • Help with tricky people issues
  • Boost your confidence
  • Help you increase profitability

We do this through one-to-one sessions, team sessions or a blend of both.

HR Consultancy, Coaching & Mentoring

If you are a standalone HR professional, it can be quite lonely and worrying when you don’t have anyone to bounce challenges, difficult casework, ideas and solutions with.  We offer coaching and mentoring to be there for you when you need support.

Additionally, we offer HR consultancy for those SMEs who are not big enough to have their own HR professional or who need extra help. 

If you need an independent grievance or disciplinary investigator, member of a recruitment panel, help with employee recruitment and retention, we can help.

Career & Life Coaching

Imagine working in that new job you have always dreamed about. Or feeling super confident and in control of your life.  Or having a work-life balance which enables you to live life to full. 

Whatever changes you are looking to make in your life, a Catalyst Coach can help you overcome barriers, including limiting beliefs, devise a plan and celebrate with you as you achieve milestones along the way.

ABOUT LIZ KING – LEAD  COACH

At Catalyst I am genuinely passionate about helping individuals and their businesses flourish.  I understand the challenges of running a business, as I have personally overcome many of the difficulties you may be encountering.  Although it can sometimes be tough, small businesses are the backbone of the UK economy and I would feel privileged to help YOU on your journey to success.

My Journey into Pub Management

After many years working in senior Human Resources and Learning and Development roles, I took the plunge.  I left a comfortable salary and established my own business as a NLP Master Coach specialising in Life and Career Coaching. Alongside my coaching business, I  co-founded a hospitality  business with my son. 

This experience taught me invaluable lessons about building businesses from scratch.  Hospitality can be a difficult sector.  Our challenges included the Novichok incident in Salisbury instantly killing our tourist trade and a hard but successful legal battle against a large pub-co.  However, we emerged as a thriving, award winning company.

There were times when I thought we weren’t going to make it, when I wondered whether I would have enough money to pay my staff, let alone myself.  However, these experiences taught me valuable lessons and provided me with profound personal growth.

My Life After Pubs

After a fulfilling seven-year journey, I returned to employment in HR Management,  However, my heart remained devoted to coaching and mentoring, and driven by a desire to help others avoid making the mistakes I made, I decided to diversify my career.   My passion is to help individuals and businesses grow, and so Catalyst was born. Since then, I have coached, mentored and provided HR services to a wide range of businesses across different sectors.

I have 30 years’ experience in Learning and Development and Human Resources leadership in the private, public and third sectors.  This experience means I bring a wealth of knowledge to my work. I am a Fellow Member of the CIPD and have a BSc in Psychology. A trained NLP Master Practitioner I also qualified as a Psychometrician meaning I can bring a deep understanding of human behaviour and effective coaching and mentoring techniques.  Additionally, I hold a Masters in Executive Coaching and Mentoring. 

I work with a great group of coaches/mentors and consultants, so we can match you with the right person to help you.
