Temporary responsibility, lasting results

Complex situations rarely lack ideas. What is missing is a shared view, clear choices and an organisation that works together on the plan and its delivery. As an interim director, I make that happen.

When organisations bring me in

  • The organisation needs to regain financial and operational control
  • A strategy must be executed under complex conditions
  • A complex challenge involves many different stakeholders
  • Entrepreneurship and problem-solving are needed to move forward
  • A new digital strategy or service must be implemented
  • Independent interim leadership is needed, with an end date

How I work

Every assignment has a beginning and an end. It is a success when the organisation can carry on without me.

  1. Phase 1

    Understand

    Facts, interests and people mapped. What is the real issue?

  2. Phase 2

    Set direction

    Priorities and boundaries on one page. Decisions made, including the hard ones.

  3. Phase 3

    Deliver

    Working together, obstacles removed.

  4. Phase 4

    Embed

    Ownership in place, so results last.

  5. Handover

    Standing on its own

    The organisation continues under its own steam.
