Interim-Management - Holistic Approach:

Our motto is "Achieving Results." We not only develop concepts on paper but also provide operational support in special situations as needed: Our experienced professionals and executives take the "driver's seat" upon request and assume responsibility in key positions as interim managers.

Our Philosophy: We are neither a personnel headhunter nor a freelancer marketplace but rather:

  • We fill interim mandates only in the industries and core functions where we are at home due to our consulting mandates.
  • We focus on key functions (C-Level, N-1 specialized project functions, specialist roles).
  • We work exclusively with Interim Managers from our handpicked business network.

Handpicked Network with Backup

Over the years, the mb+p team has built a strong network of experienced managers and experts in our core industries and functions through numerous consulting projects and operational responsibilities in line functions. This handpicked network forms the basis of our interim management network for specialist roles up to the C-Level.

It is also part of our self-image that we do not leave our Interim Managers out in the rain once they have taken on a mandate. We maintain regular contact and are available as sparring partners for both our clients and our interim managers. This way, there is also indirect access to mb+p's know-how.

Interim-Manager: Specialists on Time for Special Tasks

The use of Interim Managers is suitable when leadership or specialist vacancies in key functions need to be bridged, or when special situations request highly specialized transitional leadership that is not sufficiently available through internal professionals and executives.

They are particularly valuable in transformations, restructurings, and other challenging projects where quick action and in-depth know-how are required:

Bridging the shortage of managers and specialists

Interim Managers can flexibly fill the gap when managers suddenly leave or are absent for a longer period and ensure that day-to-day business runs smoothly.

 

Leadership and guidance in special situations

Experienced interim managers with strong implementation skills are needed in special situations that require special expertise and quick decisions in order to react quickly and effectively to critical company situations:

  • In financial-/ liquidity challenges, deep restructurings, or transformations, they can quickly create stability and implement necessary changes with their experience.
  • After a change of control, it is often necessary to realign the company and quickly fill key positions on an interim basis due to a new strategic orientation.
  • In phases of rapid growth or when entering new business fields, they help to build the necessary structures and processes to drive growth.

 

Execution & Management of Special Tasks and Project Management:

Professionally specialized Interim Managers support companies in complex, time-limited large projects (e.g., power plant/grid infrastructure projects, PMO and specialist functions in transformation projects) by bringing in their many years of professional experience, methodological knowledge, and industry-specific expertise. They can purposefully accompany complex projects in key positions such as project management, project controlling, or project procurement.
