5. The interim management value proposition
30.09.15 www.pareto-‐interim.com 5
Return on investment. Interim managers add value by using their skills and best-practice expertise to help deliver an outcome
that provides a significant ‘return on investment’ to a client. Interim managers are paid on the understanding of goals and
objectives being performed and delivered, and not simply on the basis of attendance.
Effectiveness. Operating at or near board-level gives interim managers the authority and credibility to effect significant change
or transition within a company. Unlike a ‘temp’, they're not just there to ‘bridge a vacancy’. They actively add value to the client
organization as a result of their expertise and approach.
Speed. Interim managers can be in place within few days. Being practiced in engaging promptly with the situation, they become
effective quickly upon joining a client organization. Because of their experience and expertise, interim managers also conduct
and complete assignments effectively and with appropriate speed.
Expertise. Interim managers typically operate at a senior level in the client organization, often being sensibly over-qualified for
the roles they take on. They often bring skills and knowledge not otherwise in place, to address a specific skills gap or problem.
PARETO Interim managers’ experience and expertise enables them to be extraordinary productive.
Objectivity. Unaffected by company politics, interim managers provide a fresh perspective and are able to concentrate on
what's best for the business. Being independent operators, they are able to contribute honestly without constituting a threat to
the incumbent management team.
Accountability. Rather than taking on a purely advisory role, PARETO Interim managers are managers who will take
responsibility for and manage a business or project fully by their own with low requirement for supervision. Thus they also are a
role model to the rest of the management team.
Commitment. PARETO Interim managers maintain high professional standards because their future work depends on referrals
and a successful track record. Therefore, they have a stake in the success of the assignments and projects.
6. What are the advantages of the assignment of an
interim-manager vs employee or consultant?
§ Is real doer and consultant at the same time
§ More objective decisions based on facts & figures as not part of “political environment”
§ Take over immediately and is highly motivated for the operational assignment
§ Bring new knowledge and methodological competence into a company
§ Success can be measured directly through a tight schedule and budget
§ Do have significantly lower cost than consultants
§ Analysis, action plan and implementation are coherent from a piece
§ Shows high sensibility as inter-acting entrepreneur
§ Allows fast release of motivation and performance improvement among the company
§ Steep learning curve due to (over-) qualification and industry knowledge
§ No additional charges or subsequent cost after project end
