THE
FASTEST WAY TO SUCCESS 
June
'09
It's a tough
market out there for interim managers and consultants. There are
less assignments, more competition, longer decision making cycles
and rates are being pushed downwards.
In
order to succeed, it's more important than ever before that you
differentiate yourself and stand out from the crowd.
Whether you
are a newcomer to interim management or a seasoned practitioner
finding it hard to secure your next assignment, I can help.
Over the past
four years I have worked with over 1000 new and experienced interim
managers and consultants. I have helped them kick-start their new
careers and boost their existing ones. I guarantee that when you
work with me I will be totally focused on helping you sell and market
yourself to achieve your goals quickly and cost effectively - defining
your offer and target markets, getting meetings with key decision
makers and selling yourself successfully in meetings.
Here are comments
from recent coaching clients:
"Have been
following your advice and am pleased to say that on Thursday
I was offered not one but two different six month contracts.
One was at a significantly higher day rate than the other
and more like the work I was doing at Citi so I was very pleased
to accept it – and start on Monday".

"A
short coaching session with Simon gave me three key benefits:
1. A good market understanding
2. Great tools to tackle the new way of working
3. The confidence to succeed -
I have started my first assignment ahead of schedule.
Well worth my time. Stopped me hestitating and started me
going for change wholeheartedly"

Following
a run of unsuccessful interviews in the wake of a number of
notably successful assignments I booked a session with Simon
Berry of Interim Assignment. We explored a wide range of interview
aspects from application and preparation through to post interview.
We pinned down what it was that really motivates me in securing
roles. Simon's style is relaxed, direct and probing. Within
a couple of hours we arrived at some very promising tactics
and strategies for handling future interviews at senior level.
Anyone experiencing the frustration of 'coming second' time
after time should seriously consider a session with Simon
Berry - especially since I secured the very next assignment
I went for.

I would
just like to say thank you again for all the help you have
given me in understanding the world of interim management.
I finished with British Gas in Cardiff just over two weeks
ago and I have now secured an interim project manager position
in the Department of Transport. I start my new role in London
tomorrow. The project is very high profile, challenging and
impacts the whole of the rail industry. It could be quite
an experience!

"Having
decided that I wished to leave the security of full time employment,
I felt I needed some really good advice to help me plan my
new life as an "interim" manager. I wanted to be
able to speak to someone directly - to receive help and suggestions
that were tailored to my personal circumstances, and help
me to achieve my specific goals. Working with Simon provided
me with sound advice, and a list of actions - these have helped
me enormously in the setting up and marketing of my business,
and I would have no hesitation in recommending a coaching
session to anyone considering a similar move themselves."

HOW
MUCH DOES IT COST?
Let me start
by asking how much you intend to charge per day. Recent research
shows the average day rate for an interim is £680.00. That
is £3400 per week. £13600 per month. So every month
without an assignment could be costing you £13600!!
My aim is
to help you win assignments considerably quicker than on your own.
Commonly my clients say I have saved them a great deal of wasted
time (over three months in many cases, which equates on average
to over £30,000!!)
My one to
one coaching fees are £295.00 for three hours. We can accomplish
a great deal in that time, though you would probably be better budgetting
for two sessions. Bearing in mind your potential monthly income
and the amount of time you will save, this represents an enormous
return on your investment.
