There are a number of different business situations that could result in the need for an Interim Manager. These situations could be change management, turn-around, sudden departure, crisis management, illness, death, mergers and acquisitions or project management, to mention a few. Typically there is a need for a quick and effective solution to ensure that momentum is not lost while a more long-term solution is sought after.

Furthermore, an Interim Manager can contribute with competencies and experiences from other similar solutions and thus operate with both expertise and objectivity to ensure what is best for the business.
