Our Services: Change Management • • • When your business requires fundamental change you may need interim placement. Changes such as restructuring, rapid growth, or redundancy require a focused approach until consolidation has been achieved and your own managers can take over the task. Typical scenarios: Major change in company structure Departure of key resource Skills gap Project / Programme Management overload Strategic change Temporarily vacant senior positions Facilitating a merger, flotation, acquisition or disposal We do not just fill a temporary gap in an organisation, but aim to provide immediate competitive advantage as an experienced executive, specialist, change catalyst or programme trouble-shooter. We therefore only accept missions for which we are confident of providing excellent results. Mar 08 Rainer J Koll Consulting 8
