Questions about the mandate – What exactly is it about?



I want to find out if I’m the right man for the job. For this purpose I have developed this questionnaire over the course of time.

The questions should also specify a possible indicative daily rate.

You can use these questions to prepare yourself for the assignment of an Interim Manager.

  • What is the project budget (incl. incidental costs)?
  • What is the estimated project duration?
  • How high is the expected share?
    • Planning
    • Strategy
    • Advice
    • Implementation
    • Daily business
    • Coaching
  • How do these proportions change in the course of the project?
  • What was the trigger for the search for an IM?
  • What will be the true core task?
  • What exactly should change as a result of my assignment?
  • What should NOT change?
  • What exactly do you want to achieve financially (calculate ROIM over 2 years)?
  • What exactly do you expect to have achieved by the end of the project (3 top priorities)?
