I work as one experienced executive, not as an agency with a team of juniors behind me. Within two weeks you have a well-founded picture. After that I help make the necessary decisions and get the execution moving, and I can stay involved until the change carries itself. I have no politics to defend and no follow-up work to sell, so my advice stays objective, also when it is uncomfortable. Engagements range from a one-week scan to full interim responsibility.
