What is Microsoft Catalyst?

Microsoft Catalyst is a customer engagement journey that partners can use to help businesses conceive and realize business transformation. Using this journey, partners take customers through a series of curated phases: Inspire, Design, Empower, and Achieve. 

Phase 1: Inspire – Start your journey by looking for the transformation strategy that best suits your business. From this, define and prioritise your strategy through the use of development activities then take this one step further with ideation and drive decision making through a workshop. 

Phase 2: Design – After the first phase, you will need to create a business case for change by discussing business and technological impact. At this point, you will need to qualify the potential ROI and financial benefits that come to include areas such as revenue growth, cost reduction and improved efficiency. 

Phase 3: Empower – Persuade people across your business of the value of a business transformation through the use of visual assets and immersive experiences. Using this to get buy-in and getting alignment on commitments. 

Phase 4: Achieve – At the final stage of the process, we go from envisioning to implementation. Allocate the resources required to deliver the strategy and carry out your business transformation across your business and then measure how successful it is.
