interimCEO/interimCFO

 

Welcome to the Launch! This network is Free to all qualified interim executives worldwide.

Why join the network?

Because you are not alone! We know most of you operate solo or with a couple of partners or a small team. And we know most of you are so busy with assignments and clients that you have very little time to actually market your own services. Most of you have minimal online presence, no search engine optimization, no search engine marketing program to speak of.
So this network is a resource for you--for client development, team development, professional development.

Why join your colleagues here? Three big reasons:

1. Increase your revenues by attracting more clients to you.
2. Expand your capabilities by building up your own team.
3. Further develop your professional expertise.

JOIN NOW (click here) so that clients can contact you...and so you can connect with other talented execs when you need to bring in more resources on your assignments, and can help other execs ADD YOU TO THEIR GIGS when they need additional resources.

Watch soon for news about the International Association of Interim Executives, a new organization affiliated with interimCEO/interimCFO, and also aimed at serving this growing group of business leaders worldwide. The Network and the IAIE will be announcing a series of conferences coming up Fall 2009.

Comments? Great ideas?

Send them to network publisher Elias Crim at: elias@interimceo.com.

Superior Performance from New Behaviour

Superior Performance from New Behaviour presentation

A June 2009 Keep Britain Working Campaign survey shows that since the onset of the recession 56% of financial services managers have done less to motivate employees.

In this presentation, delivered at the Sixth AQ Research Conference in London on 24 June 2009, I call upon managers to take seriously the need to define, assess and reward individual and team performance.… Continue

First profile of top exec “hired guns” published by interimCEO/interimCFO Network

June 11, 2009 (Northbrook, IL)—Who are “interim” execs and what do they do?

Until recently, not much data had been collected on this growing group of C-level executives-for-hire and how they work.

The first detailed picture of this group—often thought of as “hired guns” brought in to fix a problem—has just been published in a white paper by interimCEO/interimCFO™, an international network for top-level executives who work on demand.

As to what kinds of assignments interim executives take on,… Continue

Take a look at member Stu Haugen's blog on "resegmenting" mass market social media!

Member Stuart Haugen did a great job explaining the current state of mass market social media versus vertical networks like interimCEO/interimCFO.

Take a look at http://swhaugen.com/?p=312&cpage=1#comment-16.

I am very interesting in hearing your comments . What Stu calls the "Facebook Trap" - losing money continually, versus what he calls "S3" - Saturated Specialty Silos. We certainly intend to invite all interim execs worldwide to join us here.

What do you think about his premise? Thank… Continue

Selling sound management just isn't.... well, sexy!

I was explaining to a consulting CEO how he should be focusing on his consultants delivering superior Governance, and bringing a methodology that would have to become institutionalized, and he complained that it "wasn't sexy". As much as I hated to hear the crassness of his analysis, he was right.

When I talk with prospective clients, during the interview it becomes apparent what ails them. It isn't really that difficult since, despite their claims that the issues that have stalled success are… Continue
