Interim Management

Executive Leadership When It Matters

When value, stability, or strategic direction are at risk, speed and clarity are essential.

I support boards, investors, and executive leadership as an interim executive and transformation lead – with a clear mandate to stabilize, steer, and deliver measurable results.

When organizations face critical change, there is no time for lengthy ramp-up phases.

I step in as an interim executive, transformation lead, or program owner – taking full responsibility for outcomes, stabilizing operations, and delivering measurable results.

Independent | Crisis-tested | hands-on | execution-driven | neutral and fully aligned with management

Stabilization, Value Protection, and Measurable Impact

In complex or distressed situations, the key challenge is not the lack of initiatives, but insufficient transparency and control. I create an objective, fact-based view across organization, IT, and operations – enabling informed decisions at board level.

Typical focus areas include:

transparency on cost structures, cash burn, and resource allocation
assessment of ongoing programs, delivery risks, and value contribution
identification of structural inefficiencies and governance gaps

Based on this, I prioritize, intervene decisively where required, and ensure that management attention is focused on value-relevant initiatives.

Governance, Accountability, and Management Enablement

When we take on interim project management roles, we focus on re-establishing ownership, alignment, and momentum across all stakeholders – even after previous initiatives have failed.

Effective governance requires clear accountability and decision rights. I support supervisory boards and investors in strengthening management structures, clarifying ownership, and establishing reliable steering mechanisms.

The result:

clear roles and responsibilities at executive and management level
decision-making structures that support execution and control
improved alignment between strategy, organization, and delivery

Technology and Transformation as Value Levers

Technology investments must protect and enhance enterprise value.

I assess and steer digital and IT-related initiatives from a value, risk, and scalability perspective – not as technology programs, but as business enablers.

This includes:

evaluation of major system programs and transformation roadmaps
reduction of complexity and operational risk
alignment of IT investments with strategic and financial objectives

Financial Transparency and Board-Level Steering

For boards and investors, transparency is critical – especially during transformation or turnaround situations.

I establish management and board-ready reporting that provides clear insight into performance, risks, and priorities.

This enables:

reliable oversight of cost, progress, and value realization
early identification of risks and deviations
active steering instead of reactive escalation

Managing Transitions, Turnarounds, and Critical Phases

Whether leadership changes, carve-outs, post-merger integrations, or system replacements

– I manage transitions with a strong focus on business continuity, risk mitigation, and value protection.

Value Impact: Early identification of financial and operational risks

Control: Clear governance, reporting, and escalation paths

Execution: Hands-on leadership to ensure decisions are implemented

My objective: protect enterprise value, restore control, and create a foundation for sustainable growth – with outcomes that withstand board and investor scrutiny.
