Interim management

Operational turnarounds – growth – improving the cash conversion cycle

My credo

„It always seems impossible until it’s done.“

Interim management –

when there is an urgent lack of qualified management capacities.

Reasons for using an interim manager:

Structural and temporary problems with results

EBIT (DA)
Working capital (cash conversion cycle)
Cash flow
Quality
Delivery time/delivery reliability
Costs
Sales growth


Integration and/or realignment, e.g., after an acquisition

Introducing the company to a new corporate culture
Involve the workforce and their representatives in the process during changes
Bridging cultural differences between different countries


Bridging vacancies

Bridging vacancy periods
Coaching and supporting an internal candidate
Supporting the search and onboarding of external candidates

How you can benefit using an interim manager:

Proven leadership experience in change processes and crisis management
Avoidance of operational blind spots, also within a specific industry
External know-how
Independent from corporate politics
Short-term and flexible deployment possible (also regionally)

Philosophy

Encouraging and supporting the entire workforce in continuously improving customer value through company processes.

Methods

Providing support where problems occur – i.e., shop floor management instead of meetings in the conference room. Developing problem-solving skills – asking the right questions rather than delivering answers.

Results

Even if the approach seems unusual at first: Teams I lead usually achieve results that exceed their expectations.

Person

Through many years of working and also living in different countries assuming global responsibility,
I have succeeded in constantly developing my intercultural competence.
