There are many misconceptions about Interim Management and indeed
confusion as to the difference between an Interim Manager and a Management Consultant.
While very similar in many ways, the key difference is
in how they operate and the true value they can bring to your business.
When to use an Interim Manager ...
An excellent Interim Manager has the ability to fit into either a Line
Management or Project Management role with the added ability of being able to hit the ground running. Situations when the
use of an Interim Manager can be beneficial to your business include:
Executive Mentoring / Coaching
Communication Training
Personality Style Understanding
Temporary Key Cover
Resignation, Sickness or Death of a key manager
Secondment cover, Maternity cover or Leave cover
Unexpected Termination cover
Recruitment difficulties or Notice Period cover
Unexpected increase in workload
Change Management
Restructuring / Culture Change
Acquisitions & Mergers
Business turnaround
Project Management
when additional experienced resources are required to bolster any key project
You can expect your Interim Manager to ...
Provide hands on management while taking full responsibility for the tasks
they are assigned
Recommend and implement solutions based on practical experience
Assume control over relevant budgets
Deliver tried and tested solutions that they have implemented in similar
situations
Assume a leadership role from the beginning
Be accountable directly to the employing company
Provide coaching and mentoring of existing staff to ensure they are able
to step up to the mark
