As an HR Interim Manager, I temporarily assume leadership, generalist, or specialist roles within your HR department. You can engage me for a specific duration, a particular project, or to address a specific issue. I roll up my sleeves and bring order to your HR department. Or, I can serve as a consultant for your company as needed, depending on what makes sense and your budget.

WHEN DO I STEP IN? 

You have temporary HR needs due to someone being ill or not yet on board, but HR tasks must continue. Your company lacks an in-house HR professional.

You want to engage temporally an HR professional and need competent and proactive assistance to ensure you find the perfect candidate.

In addition to handling typical HR matters, I can cover the following specialized areas:

APPRECIATIVE FEELGOOD MANAGEMENT

1. Feel-Good Management: How do I make my employees happy? How do I identify my employees' needs to promote constructive collaboration?
2. Competent Recruiting: With years of experience in recruiting for international mid-sized companies, I've successfully brought on board the best talent. This includes the entire hiring process, candidate selection, executive search, working with staffing agencies, renegotiating service provider fees, and uncovering potential pitfalls. My insider knowledge and expertise from eight years in executive search assist in this endeavor.

I also offer HR department training and development.

1. Retention Management: How do I retain employees long-term? In today's job market, we have a shortage of well-trained and motivated applicants for open positions. The battle for top talent has already begun. The question is, how can a savvy company keep high performers engaged for the long haul? The goal is to reduce turnover to save on recruitment and onboarding costs.
   
   
2. How to manage Generations Y and Z: What do Generations Y and Z want? Is it only about higher salaries, or do they also seek a comfortable work environment to engage with the company in the long term?
   
   
3. Salary Structure Consulting: Is my company paying too little or too much? Have my employees become too complacent? How do I get them to step up their game?
   
   
4. Motivation, Motivation, and More Motivation! Without motivation, nothing happens. It's all about mindset—my motto! How can we motivate your employees if motivation is lacking? Can motivated employees be developed more rapidly and placed in key positions? If so, how do we achieve that?
   
   
5. Providing a Positive Candidate Journey for all applicants: Learn how to keep the best candidates engaged so they sign with your company and make it their top choice. This includes speeding up the process and showing appreciation throughout.
   
6. The Asshole Problem: How do I avoid hiring individuals who disrupt the workplace and drive away high performers? How do I identify imposters during the hiring process? And how can I get rid of them within 100 days if they've already passed the probationary period because the HR department or management failed to terminate underperformers?
   
   Some of these topics may be challenging for HR professionals who are hesitant or inexperienced. However, I have no problem tackling them. Firstly, I have a thick skin. Secondly, I've been working as an HR professional for a long time. Thirdly, once I've solved the problem, I move on, so there's no need for me to deal with political adversaries in the company until retirement. As an external consultant, I'm already onto the next client, giving you peace of mind.
