Implementing Large-Scale Projects with Executive Interim Management
To set the groundwork for future growth, you've identified a business-critical project, program or initiative that requires specific expertise that goes beyond what your existing team can handle. You need a dedicated executive sponsor to be your eyes and ears on the ground. Bringing in an interim executive to run large-scale projects can make the difference between progress and inertia.
Our skilled interim project managers can lead:
- IT transformation and integration
- Organization design
- Succession planning
- Post-merger integrations
- Internal/external communications strategy
- Global supply chain redesign

Interim Executive Establishes New Business Channel for Yamaha Motors
"Recruiting an interim executive allowed us to hire the specific skill set we needed for this short-term initiative. Although we had considered it, looking back, it would have been a mistake to hire a full-time executive to both to build this division and run it long-term. Building something from the ground versus maintaining it are two very different skillsets. Choosing to go with an interim executive with an entrepreneurial streak was the best decision we made.”
