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 part time or interim. Interim leaders possess strong leadership skills, a deep understanding of the function and industry, and the ability to quickly assess and address critical issues. 

 
 
The process from start to finish was clear, professional and Ell was a guiding hand throughout. He also became a confidante and friend which speaks volumes. I have endorsed and recommended numerous senior execs to Ell since and all have been impressed.
