bridging the gap
interim executive management services for law firms
Gaps anywhere in the firm can be a challenge. Some of thm can be critical.
A vacancy in a senior management position can hurt productivity and produce organizational confusion, loss of focus, and lost opportunities.
Trying to manage a major project or business initiative with inadequate internal management resources can increase its cost and the risk of disappointing results.
How Walker Clark can help
Are you expecting -- or have you just been surprised by -- the departure of a member of your senior management team?
Do you have a major business initiative or project, such as relocation to a new building, opening of a branch office, or a merger with another law firm, that requires expert full-time, temporary management on-site?
Have you created a new executive position, such as executive director or marketing director, and want to realize the benefits before you have finally found the right person for the job?
Walker Clark will send one of our most senior and experienced principals to work in-house, at your firm, for up to four months, in an assignment designed to meet your immediate need to keep your firm moving forward to deliver your business plan, as well as continue to achieve your strategic objectives.
How does this service work?
- Assignments designed for any period of two weeks to four months
- Ability to extend or terminate assignments on short notice
- Full-time or part-time assignments
- Weekly and monthly fixed fees available, including expenses
- Agreed position descriptions and priorities
How is this different from ordinary temporary staffing services?
Walker Clark, LLC, is not a temporary staffing agency. We do not use people from outside our firm for our interim executive management services. Instead, each person is a senior Walker Clark member with experience in management issues in hundreds of law firms, of all sizes, worldwide.
When your firm engages Walker Clark to fill a gap in your senior management team or to manage a project in-house, you get more than the Walker Clark member who will be working in your office. Your interim manager will also be supported by the entire Walker Clark team and our full range of multidisciplinary expertise. He or she will do much more than occupy a vacant chair.
To discuss a possible interim executive management assignment for your firm, please contact Norman Clark by email or by telephone to 1.239.466.8370.
