Hiring an experienced Interim Manager offers many advantages:
Flexibility:
Temporary extra capacity for your important program or project
Experience:
Benefit from more than 25 years of experience in the High Tech world, from R&D to production. Both technical, organizational and in communication. Accustomed to external demands like ISO9001, ISO14001 or ISO13485.
Coaching on the job:
Bring your young managers up to par on all aspects of leadership
A fresh view:
Frequently less productive ways of working have become standard in an existing organization. A critical external view can help make this visible, make it a point of discussion, and help to improve it.
Independency:
For difficult processes (e.g. reorganizations) it helps to have an independent person to structure matters and take decisions without direct emotional involvement.
