Interim Management with foresight. Impact when it’s needed.
CCC Interim Leadership | Kai Künstler stands for experienced leadership on demand, where companies need to act quickly without being able to commit long-term. I bring the structure, implementation power, and result responsibility that your company`s situation demands.
I take responsibility where leadership strength, structure, and implementation power are needed. Quickly, effectively, and in a truly connecting way.
Engagement Models: Interim Leadership (Full-Time) & Fractional Leadership (Part-Time)
I provide leadership on demand in two formats, tailored to your needs and business situation:
Interim Leadership (temporary, full-time based): Temporary executive leadership role with full accountability for results – bridging critical vacancies, driving transformation, enabling commercial scaling, or stabilizing organizations in times of crisis.
Fractional Leadership (temporary, part-time based): Highly qualified, strategic yet hands-on leadership on a part-time or project-based basis – ideal when seasoned, pragmatic executive expertise is required, but a full-time commitment is not.
Both models are temporary and cover all service areas described below.
What you can expect – at a glance:
Leadership responsibility on demand
Executive Interim Management:
- Do you need someone who leads with both C-level expertise and strong hands-on competence and can deliver from day one? I take on temporary leadership roles at VP and director level, with full accountability for results and execution.
Transformation under pressure
Restructuring, Change, PMI:
- Restructuring & Performance Management: When stability and efficiency need to be restored, under time pressure and with resistance in the system. I lead with a clear line and entrepreneurial focus.
- Transformation & Change Leadership: When change is needed but internal resources lack the time, energy, or mandate to drive it, I lead transformation from the outside, with focus, structure, and commitment to execution.
- Post-Merger Integration (PMI): When integration projects stagnate or clear leadership from outside is needed, I bring objectivity, structure, and implementation speed.
Growth under uncertainty
Business Development & Scaling:
- When innovation cannot wait, I take responsibility for growth and scaling projects until the organization is ready to lead itself.
Relief in certain phases
Project takeover & Line representation:
- When you have no time for failures, overload, or lengthy appointment procedures, I step in. Not as a transitional solution, but as your leader with a clear mandate and result responsibility.
