The transition manager: an expert to support changes
The role of interim manager is increasingly in demand in a constantly evolving world of work. Companies call on these professionals not only to deal with crises, but also to transform their business. Often working on a salary basis, they intervene for a limited period to help the company move from point A to point B.
A profession that appeared in the United States in the 1970s
The profession of interim manager was born in the 1970s in the United States before developing on the French job market a decade later. These professionals are considered true leaders capable of implementing new tools, restructuring a company, navigating periods of crisis, developing large-scale projects or even reducing costs for the company.
The essential skills of the interim manager
To be a good interim manager, it is necessary to possess several key skills:
- Leadership: The interim manager must be a true leader, especially when working in salary portage. He must be able to unite the teams around his strategy.
- Listening and understanding: These skills are essential to properly analyze your new environment, understand the company’s challenges and position yourself on the side of the client organization.
- Responsiveness to unforeseen events: The manager must be able to react quickly and effectively to unexpected events, crises or problems. His experience and expertise allow him to step out of his comfort zone and implement concrete changes.
- Mobility: An interim manager must be ready to travel across France, or even abroad, to work on different sites or teams within a company.
The advantages of salary portability for the interim manager
Salary portage has several advantages for an interim manager:
- Simplified management of administrative tasks: By being under salary umbrella, the manager is relieved of the administrative constraints which are taken care of by the umbrella company. He can thus concentrate fully on his mission with the client company.
- Validated professionalism and experience: Calling on a salary portage transition manager guarantees the company that the professional has a reliable profile, with experience and qualifications validated by the portage company.
- Adaptability to changes: As an employee in salary portage, the interim manager is used to adapting quickly and efficiently to new situations and changes to be implemented, whatever their expertise.
The interim manager plays a crucial role in companies to support changes and improve their performance. Thanks to salary portage, he benefits from administrative simplification which allows him to devote himself fully to his mission, while offering the client company the guarantee of a competent and experienced professional. It is certain that this profession will continue to develop in the years to come to meet the growing challenges encountered by companies.
