What is executive interim management?

dirigeants en discussion

Executive interim management is a tailored, pragmatic, and operational top management solution. Appointed to reach a predetermined result, the interim manager addresses a specific issue. He or she operates within a defined framework for a limited period.

Interim management can be used to address a variety of situations, whether to support the company’s transformation, provide leadership during periods of change, pursue performance goals or turn around crisis-stricken companies.

Experienced interim executives can intervene for a department, a function, or the entire company. When the company lacks the knowledge and experience to achieve the desired result rapidly, an interim executive can quickly assess a situation, implement actions and structure the organization. This ensures immediate implementation of the transformation and sustainable development.

Amidst high pressure to hire top-level executives, combining internal resources with experienced interim executives enables a more effective response to both strategic and operational priorities.

Why use executive interim management?

An experienced executive interim manager brings a fresh, objective perspective to your company and your employees, helping them to tackle your challenges.

Carefully selected to achieve precise objectives within the scope of his assignment, the interim manager conducts an initial assessment and effectively implements the action plan.

Interim management is a high-performance support solution: internally, your teams benefit from support and are strengthened both operationally and in human terms.

Throughout an assignment, skills transfer, know-how and interpersonal skills by the interim manager enables your company to co-create, stabilize and consolidate its transformation, well beyond the assignment’s duration.

With the ability to provide a 360-degree vision, and being versatile, the interim manager considers all the challenges related to his assignment.
