Operational Consulting
Have you ever considered providing additional support to help an executive take the reins in a new position? Or to successfully oversee a strategic project of crucial importance? Or maybe to teach an executive a new approach to management? Grant Alexander can provide tailored one-to-one support!
As a combination of organisational consulting and hands-on, in-the-field support, operational consulting – also known as operational mentoring – is a management solution which can prove particularly useful in this type of critical transition.
To support and guide your executive, we quickly assign a senior interim manager. As a dedicated mentor, they share all their expertise and practical tips with them. The skills transferred help them grow and get a firm handle on their new position and responsibilities.
Personalised operational support
If you need to guarantee continuous improvement in performance, bring an executive’s mindset more in line with the CEO’s, help your CFO to take on new responsibilities once your company goes public, or manage changes to any role following a major event like a merger or demerger for instance, operational consulting can help!
Whatever shape your urgent situation may take, an associate director at Grant Alexander – Executive Interim will listen closely and work with you to outline the particular needs of the executive in question and understand your expectations. From the first meeting, you will create a framework for the assignment: the areas in which the executive needs operational mentoring and the schedule and length of the assignment.
Just a few days later, your associate director will suggest a suitable candidate: an experienced former business leader recognised for their:
- Technical skills
- Operational experience
- Pragmatic approach to teaching
- Ability to support and even train others
