5 Key Steps to Making a Good Impression as an Interim Executive | IEC LLC

As customers increasingly demand more from businesses, it is not surprising that so many organizations are going through some form of change and transformation. However, to ensure that these changes are successful, every business will need experts in their teams that they can rely on. This is when many people turn to interim executives with higher calibres to guide their teams in the right direction.

Interim Executives are not a permanent solution (although some individuals may take a permanent position within the business after their job is done) but a solution for rapid turnaround, achieving rapid results and identifying strategies to move the business forward is.

At International Executive Consulting LLC, we have always seen a demand for interim executives, but it has grown exponentially over the years. So, I wanted to share some of the benefits of hiring an interim manager and why so many businesses are choosing to do so:

1. Speed:

Interim executives who are hired to address urgent needs can usually start within days and create an immediate impact. It is a great alternative to permanent recruitment as you do not have to wait for the candidate to work for the notice period; A great solution for urgent needs.

Interim executives are very adaptable and are highly experienced in quickly immersing themselves in a new organization and working at speed, which means you'll start to see progress shortly after they start.


2. Expertise/Knowledge Transfer:

IEC’s Interim Executives are experts and are great at filling skill gaps or ensuring a project is completed and to the highest standards. A great quality of interim executives is that they are more qualified for most permanent positions. Why? Because they are experts in one field and have extensive experience, which means they can drive with minimal direction and will be able to transfer the knowledge to the rest of the business.

3. Impartiality:

Although interim executives are open and adaptable to varying company cultures, they are also experts at separating their work from company politics, personality or protocol. Being new to your business and getting on board to complete an assignment in less time will mean that they will be strategic and fair.

4. Delivery:

As interim executives are usually results focused and act tactfully, they are great for giving back to the board. While working to ensure a good return on investment, they are also important to ensure work on time and on budget.

5. Value for Money:

In many cases an interim will manage their own business or have experience running P&L through previous employment. They will also have the ability to understand why certain decisions have been taken to benefit the business, as they have been there before. Perhaps most importantly, Interim Executives will know that there is an ROI figure attached to themselves and the project they are hired to execute.
