What is Interim Leadership?

An interim leader is an experienced specialist executive who can be employed for a defined period to solve a business problem. Also known as 'fractional consulting'. 

The person steps into an organisation’s leadership position temporarily. Interim leaders possess strong leadership skills, a deep understanding of the function and industry, and the ability to quickly assess and address critical issues. 

8 Reasons Why You Should Consider an Interim Leader

  1. Cost-effective solution compared to permanent hire. 

  2. Insights and experience for a fraction of the cost. 

  3. Help define what your full-time hire should be.

  4. On-demand specialist and sector-specific knowledge. 

  5. Competitor and market intelligence.

  6. 'Try before you buy' a full time hire. 

  7. Ideal for maternity or paternity cover.

  8. Reduce pressure on founders and leadership team.
