The benefits of interim management
delivers your transformation projects, supports your growth challenges in France and internationally, improves your company’s performance, and helps you manage critical situations effectively.
What are the benefits of interim management for the company?
Calling on an interim manager allows you to meet your needs and ensures :
- Immediate mission start, possible within a few days
- Flexibility : the interim manager arrives and leaves as needed
- Concrete and quick solution
- Objective intervention, coming from an outside peer
- Cost control
An interim manager (interim CEO, interim HRD, etc.) is an executive who likes action and change, who manages stress and urgency. They are mobile, resistant, autonomous, leader. They adapt and act concretely : they have a culture of results.
Sometimes considered as the right hand of managers, they are very often identified as “internal” and not “external” within the company.
How to choose between recruiting and outsourcing resources?
Hiring manager on a permanent contract responds to a long-term demand. Assigning a consultant from a strategy consulting firm responds to a need for analysis and diagnosis, rather than “action”. Interim management responds to :
- Urgent need for staffing
- Need for a highly qualified profile
- fixed-term mission - from 3 months to 2 years
The interim manager is responsible for implementing a transformation plan or leading a project, regardless of the company’s context or objectives : leadership, organization, operations, performance improvement, growth or turnaround situations. The company is looking for :
- C-levels, often linked to ExCom / ManCom
- True leader, one who manages change : the director is at the heart of the action, he sets up and manages, to follow up on an identified issue
- Overqualified profile : this allows him to adapt immediately and succeed in the mission
- Bilingual, mobile, flexible and immediately available person
- Undeniable and quick ROI (return on investment)
