• Keen interest and knowledge of business psychology and the science of human behaviour to attain effective and sustainable performance for both individuals and organisations.

• Elaborate business development plans, design and implement processes to support business growth, through customer and market definition.

• Facilitate business growth by working together with Catalyst Global employees and partners

• Build and maintain high-level contacts with current and prospective partners and other business and project partners.
