10 benefits of using an Interim
This article explains 10 benefits an organisation can expect to achieve by engaging an experienced Interim Management professional on an assignment:-
- There is no recruitment fee
- Interim Managers can start almost immediately
- Interim Managers are normally sensibly over qualified for the roles they are asked to fulfil and as a result they can ‘hit the ground running’
- They represent a good return on investment often adding more value to an organisation than the total cost of the assignment
- Interims are non-political individuals who look for the root causes to problems rather than getting caught up in office politics or silo protectionist mentality
- They can offer peripheral benefits to an organisation such as staff coaching and mentoring as a result of their broad business experience
- They are often good communicators at all levels and a result are able to mobilise teams to attain higher levels of achievement
- Experienced Interim Managers have experienced a broad bandwidth of best practise through their various previous assignments and can therefore guide, advise and help to implement the various actions required to achieve the assignment objectives
- Interim Managers are motivated to leave a positive legacy so that it is likely your business will want to use their services again should the need arise
- There is no redundancy or exit cost to an interim assignment
