Interim Management – Allows for Flexibility in Times of Medical Crisis | IEC LLC

Flexibility and managerial strength in businesses are more demanding than ever. Terms and conditions also changed on how we do business when we know that the world has turned upside down. Production is still required. The idea here at home is that the wheels should be turned on and businesses have responded to this when the conditions are favorable.

In addition to being flexible and quick to change, the core competency for an interim manager is that they are used to navigating in chaos — or especially in situations where major changes are needed and possibly a change is needed.

No One Has Been in This Situation Before:

In this time of crisis, International Executive Consulting LLC is in contact with several companies to hear how the world experiences under the influence of Covid-19. They talk about major challenges that change the management function. Communication must find new ways, as well as alternative solutions to ensure employee safety and work with external partners. And the question of maintaining the culture and values of companies has also been given new relevance.

The situation is new in every way. Current leaders are not necessarily right, because the challenges are much different than they were a few months ago.



Communication or Parallel Management:

It is an idea to hire additional managerial resources. It is worth remembering that many interim managers are used under changing and challenging conditions. It emphasizes that there is no need to get rid of the current manager, but instead the interim manager improves the current manager’s skills. This allows critical interim special projects to be taken on and executed upon through the acute crisis caused by the pandemic.

Another good reason why a company should add additional managerial resources to these times is because interim is used for communication. This capability is particularly in demand now, as one of the biggest challenges the workforce experiences is that employees worry about their safety and the way the company is taking precautions to ensure that workers are at risk. Do not be in the area. This creates an extraordinary demand for communication between management and employees to explain to them what the business is in, how one should act and navigate.

A Temporary Manager is a Quick Solution:

In a time where no one knows what will happen today, in a week or a month, it can be particularly challenging to work with a leadership vacuum, as a manager has given up. The decision to start a search after the new permanent manager can be difficult if the future of the company is uncertain. Because both time and money are scarce resources.


“Under normal circumstances, businesses are usually able to wait a few months to find a permanent solution but in Corona's time, demand for closing the gap quickly is increasing as the company builds a sense of flexibility. Therefore, it would be most natural to go after a temporary solution as an interim manager, rather than using a lot of time and resources on a long-drawn and expensive recruitment process. In other words, someone who can make decisions quickly and is able to remain calm and communicate effectively in atypical situations.
