Interim manager: The stuff of heroes!
The essential resource for a modern business!
At a time when national groups and ETIs are experiencing drastic changes similar to the challenges faced by international companies 10 years ago, it seems irremediable that a change of course be led by an experienced leader! All the complexity of the decision-makers is to be able to count on the aptitudes of leaders of men, having the experience of management, the deep desire for a beneficial change for the company and its employees, and an impartial vision as for the objectives to be reach.
But how to do it ? One of the current problems being that the leaders in office for many years are having real difficulty adjusting to the new visions of a direction that will be led in the medium term by the present generation Y. The changes are too hard to bear (especially in France), the will tends to crumble, in short! A leadership adapted and vital to the company is missing to be economically viable and disruptive!
The solution ? The interim manager. Often confined to a reductive role or referred to as “The Mr. Reforms”, his role is quite different!
Interim Managers provide an almost immediate response to the needs of companies
The interim manager is an ultra-experienced woman or man, capable of projecting themselves into the future, anticipating the needs of a company and responding to them in an innovative way. Today more than ever, the interim manager must be connected and known for his communication skills, regardless of the generation involved! He is a passionate person who exchanges and shares his experience over the course of his missions. However, the typical profile of the interim manager is constantly changing, and that is what makes the strength of this profession!
Each company sees the future in a very personal way. Some need to move on to 2.0, others to change marketing methods, and there are those who are experiencing economic crises that are supposed to be irrevocable. The interim manager is able to adapt to each situation to become, in the very short term, the piece of the puzzle that completes the picture. Restarting the growth of a company, diagnosing the real needs to make the appropriate decisions, assisting the client in the recruitment of his successor… these are all missions that an interim manager fulfills. He is also the one who will know how to demolish the high walls that are the traditions at work to establish a climate of trust and modern professionalism. Each interim manager has his own character and managerial style. But one reality remains: clients sometimes need a facilitator, an organizer or a leader!
The interim manager is THE solution for an effective way out of the crisis, while setting a new course for the company. They put their capacities of organizers at the service of deep restructurings.
However, “crisis exits” are not the only missions of interim managers. They are also the leaders of business reorientation projects, carry out relay management missions by resizing established processes.
Today’s global economic market shows us that speed of execution is survival. It is no longer a question of being the most imposing, the power is now based on the time of adaptation. That’s the whole point of calling on experienced people who know how to restart the economic growth of companies immediately.
