The EIM solution brings immediate value, and lays the foundation for the future success of the client. It is implemented using a proven operational approach based on the Triangular Relationship between the client, the EIM Interim Manager, and the EIM Counsellor which incorporates five key factors :

• Detailed planning
  We work with our clients from the start in order to arrive at a well-understood definition of the project's context and objectives. Focus and clarity at this early stage are key for effectiveness and success.
• Superior talents
  We permanently invest time in each country identifying, interviewing and developing senior managers with an excellent track record of leadership in a change environment. When resourcing an assignment, we often appoint managers whose credibility and experience far exceed the project's demands so as to guarantee speed and reduce risk.
• Quick response time
  As soon as we have a clear understanding of a situation and our client's objectives, we select the person best suited to the assignment. As speed is increasingly a prerequisite for success, our interim managers are usually in place within one to three weeks.
• Project governance
  Throughout each assignment, an EIM Counsellor assesses progress and evaluates results; bringing an independent perspective and leveraging the experience accumulated worldwide by EIM. A formal review process, embedded in the Triangular Relationship concept, ensures that results are achieved, focus is maintained and priorities adjusted if the situation changes.
• Building for the future
  EIM not only responds to immediate challenges but also prepares for the longer term. During the last stage of the assignment, we agree on a hand-over plan with our client - the future organisation is defined and new permanent leaders identified, coached or recruited as needed.
