Interim Manager to resolve management bottlenecks, management vacancies & crisis management
As Interim Manager I take on Interim Management assignments (vacancy bridging) for my clients in the technology sector and for digital business transformations.
These vacancies result, for example, from the fact that the definitive filling of a management position does not succeed in time, so that an interim solution is chosen for reasons of continuity.
My role in such a case is to ensure an orderly handover, to act as a contact for the internal and external stakeholders, to stabilise the department, to support the recruitment of the permanent successor and to hand over the department to her/him again.
Often my clients also use my competences to implement a prior structural adjustment in a transition phase and to realign the organisational unit. I am trained for such change processes and bring along the necessary expertise with the corresponding soft skills.
As last field of activity, I have specialised in ICT crisis projects. Unfortunately, there are still too many IT projects that end up massively over budget or even have to be written off completely. Here, my experience helps me to analyse the project, to outline a feasible path with all stakeholders and to implement it. Because creating glossy presentations alone does not solve a problem. This requires an experienced leader with strong implementation skills.
I would be happy to offer you my expertise as Interim Manager for your vacancy. Use my Experience for your goals!
My personal strengths
Through my Technology leadership, management experience and a track record as a change catalyst, I support my customers in implementing the necessary adjustments.
- As Engineer/ICT Specialist I understand technically complex interrelationships and can obtain first-hand information from the teams involved.
- Through my MBA/Seniority I can communicate necessary adjustments at the appropriate level and win over all key stakeholders for the project.
- This change topic (on the psychological side as well as on the side of corporate dynamics) has accompanied and fascinated me for quite some time. Through my sound INSEAD education and experience from similar situations, I can respond to all the parties involved and convince them of the necessity of the project.
- My credo: Competent - Strong implementation - Sustainable
Practical examples for the field of application of an Interim Manager
The field of application of an Interim Manager is extremely diverse and can also bring great advantages for your company.
Here are some examples from practice:
- The existing management capacity must be expanded quickly, as urgent new tasks are pending that can no longer be handled by the existing management.
- A manager drops out for an indefinite period as a result of illness or accident.
- The definitive filling of a management position does not succeed in time, so an interim solution is chosen to save time.
- To implement an important internal project, an unencumbered leader is hired from the outside.
- For the introduction of new technologies a project leader is sought who can bring in the aspects of entrepreneurship from his own experience.
- To stabilize a company in a critical situation, a manager with crisis experience is deployed on a temporary basis.
- For the smooth establishment of new activities abroad a personality is assigned who knows foreign cultures.
- The great success of a company leads to growth problems, which are to be bridged with an experienced Interim Manager.
