Interim Management

"Collaborations do not fail because the will to work together is lacking, but because of a limited perception of one's own weaknesses or a failure to allow for complementary external strengths.”
(freely after Peter Sereinigg )

Restructuring (change management), the establishment of new business lines (business development) or the sale of low-return business lines (divestment) pose considerable challenges. Often the staff capacities or simply a special competence are missing.

With our partner company IES Interim Expert Solutions , we can provide you with experienced, highly qualified experts and managers who have been verified by us to take on demanding tasks in your company for a limited period of time.

"Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence win championships.”
(Michael Jordan)

Interim managers are executives in senior or top management who take over management tasks and responsibility for results of the agreed project work for a limited period of time. They leave the company as soon as the problem or project has been solved as a team effort with the employees and completed in a targeted manner.
For the company, this means a considerable increase in efficiency.

Temporary executives - interim managers - are often the ideal solution for taking on tasks at short notice that cannot be handled by a company's existing team. They assume full operational responsibility and are accountable for results. They help to solve an acute problem together with the existing team. Due to our network and our knowledge of the industry, we are able to provide you with suitable managers or experts at short notice.

Companies sometimes run into severe difficulties unexpectedly. Important employees at key positions suddenly drop out or leave the company, the complexity of the challenges exceeds the capacities of the management, a new topic cannot be handled competently. One more woman or man on the bridge would be needed. Responsible management means recognizing this problem and not putting it on the back burner. Interim management is the appropriate solution here, through which the company gains additional capacity without tying itself down for a long time in terms of human resources.

Complex issues require professional project management. Sometimes the existing human resources are not sufficient for the new task. The lack of experience for the efficient and professional handling of a project can also be the reason for looking for interim management.
We support you in finding the right person who is able to take over the project management and to manage the related project tasks. No matter on which level or at which daily rates: We will find someone who fits you - professionally and humanly.

If the earnings figures of a company or business unit are red or even dark red, it is necessary to turn things around and quickly restructure performance-related processes and capital structures. This requires measures that take effect quickly and effectively. Because more often than not there is no second chance. Often, the existing management is stuck in old structures and shies away from breaks in corporate policy. Competent external experts, brought on board at short notice, approach business management necessities unencumbered. They can help to find and mobilize performance potential in sales, order processing and all corporate and service functions. As consultants, we have an excellent track record in this area.

With experience and reliable tools, we help to overcome insufficient efficiencies, liquidity bottlenecks and impending over-indebtedness. On the asset side, we tap potential (e.g. sale and lease back, factoring) and support you in negotiations with creditors (e.g. debt to equity swap).
