Top Signs You Need an Interim Executive | IEC LLC

International Executive Consulting LLC featuring top interim and part-time executives worldwide, interim services, interim CEOs, C-level executives and more. But, the title is not the main focus. Interim executives are often project-based resources that can be drawn on to complete large projects with the current management team, someone to mentor internally, or assess how your business is doing and can prepare a roadmap for the future.

If you meet the following criteria, we may be able to help:

1) I want to improve and grow my business:

• Is your business growing at the right pace?
• Are you taking advantage of all the opportunities that are presented to you?
• Do you have a clear roadmap and strategy for the future?
• Are you executing your strategic plan well?
• Does the market have a positive perception and awareness of your brand?
• Do you have a clear view of your finances and your profitability?
• Are your operations maxed out?
• Is technology fully enabling your business strategy?

If you haven't answered all of these questions, it confirms that an interim can be a resource. As growth-focused executives, an interim executive is motivated by the challenge at hand. With the incredible expertise they provide to companies building and growing Interim Management Services in many different industries, they bring an outside perspective and start making an impact in your organization from the outset.

2) I do not have the right internal resources to achieve our goals (or they are too tight for the time):

Interim executives, part-time and project-based executives add value by working with a client to help them achieving goals and objectives. Our interim executives take ownership of a project or initiative and are empowered to work within an organization. Whether an executive has suddenly left, you are in the midst of crisis management, or a large project requires leadership (i.e. ERP implementation, re-brand, product launch, manufacturing facility improvement) interim executives can be an on-call resource.




Some organizations employ interim executives who can work on site as well as on a team. Others seek more flexible help from leaders such as a virtual CIO or remote temporary CFO. Interim executives allow you to gain specific expertise for the duration of the assignment. When the deliverables are achieved, you can rest assured that your team will be more empowered, receiving mentorship and clarity along the way.

3) I am looking for someone who will be accountable for the consequences:

Interim Executives are not merely advisors or midwives. Their careers are built on positive outcomes (otherwise who would call them that again?) Our interim CEO sees your business from the owner's perspective where your success is their success. An assignment typically begins with an operational roadmap, then sets out clear deliverables that the executive will be responsible for execution.

4) We need resources fast:

It is not a readymade executive search process which takes 6-9 months to find an executive. One minute interim is available, and the next day they are on assignment, so we provide the Best Interim Executive Services for organizations looking for executive leadership in just a few weeks or days. An executive or team ranging from part-time CEO to temporary CFO to interim CIO support is on call and ready to be deployed.
