The need for an interim manager usually arises without warning. An employee falls ill, a serious conflict arises, or a recruitment process drags on. Hiring an interim resource has many advantages. We have selected the most common ones:
Speed. The person will be on site after a few days and is an expert at quickly familiarizing themselves with new companies and tasks.
Competence. Consultants have observed how many companies operate and can demonstrate efficiencies and improvements.
Flexibility. Compensation is only paid for hours actually worked, and assignments can easily be shortened or extended.
Self-propelled. A qualified consultant requires minimal time from the rest of the organization.
Input. Consultants are objective and not influenced to the same extent by personnel policy. They tell you what they think you need to hear, not what they think you want to hear.
