Getting the most out of interim managers

18 November 2008

Tom Brass, Chairman of the Institute of Interim Managers is to chair a special event aimed at helping businesses to get the most out of recruiting interim managers.

Organised by Symposium Events Limited, a company that specialises in the organisation of conferences on HR topics, the full-day forum will take place on Thursday February 26, 2009.

Entitled Interim Managers: Maximising Their Value to You, the conference is aimed primarily at clients, and will look at what they need to do when recruiting and working with interims to achieve maximum added value.

Tom Brass will be joined at the event by keynote speaker Annemarie Crouch, HR Director at Barclays Wealth.

Other speakers already confirmed include HR and operations directors drawn from the public sector, including the London Development Agency, HM Treasury, and Newham, Walsall and Surrey Councils as well as the private sector.

Amongst the private companies represented are Analysis Mason, Dufry Management, AEGIS (London) and Opodo whilst Adrian Marlowe of Lawspeed will deal with the thorny issues surrounding interims' employment status and how these should affect what clients should do.

Further information about the event, including venue and booking details will be circulated to IIM members when the programme is finalised.
