		<title>Is true Interim Management getting lost in recruitment?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over the last two months I have been speaking to more Interim Managers that are getting frustrated with over complicated hiring processes that are based on a “recruitment = one size fits all” approach. It appears that these processes seem to be increasingly accepted by some hiring companies and some Interim Management providers (who I [...]]]></description>

		<title>What will be the catalyst for change?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It’s been a little over three years since I joined Interim Partners and looking back over previous blogs it’s plain to see that not a lot has changed in terms of the macro-economic landscape.  We’re still talking about recession albeit with the emphasis on double dip, on tough markets and the need to become ever [...]]]></description>

		<title>Quick out of the blocks</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m sitting here on the train at 6.00am trying to warm up by writing my blog. Why? Well it&#8217;s certainly not a New Year&#8217;s resolution that I&#8217;m going to be far more efficient with my time. I have to put it down to the fact that the start to the year has been a little [...]]]></description>

		<title>Retail Predictions 2012</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was thinking recently of an Institute For Turnaround (IFT) lecture I attended in the summer of 2008 where Sir Stuart Rose was inducted as an Honorary Member and made to ‘sing for his supper’. On reflection I wonder if Sir Stuart is in possession of a crystal ball as he made what have turned [...]]]></description>

		<title>Safe as houses?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Despite fears that the UK economy is about to re-enter recession it seems that the London commercial property market remains a key destination for foreign investors looking to plough money into bricks and mortar.
According to Cushman &#38; Wakefield, £6.3bn worth of deals were transacted in the City last year compared to £4.7bn in 2010 with [...]]]></description>

		<title>The third way?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Iran appears committed to its hegemonic aspirations within the gulf, flexing its muscles regionally on an almost daily basis (most recently with the large scale naval exercises around the Straits of Hormuz) and continuing its policy of developing itself into a credible nuclear player.
As the price of crude (over the long term) continues to rise [...]]]></description>

		<title>The road to success</title>
		<description><![CDATA[PricewaterhouseCoopers is on track to receive a record 30,000 applications for its graduate entry scheme with just 1200 places available -  the latest indicator of the strains in the British labour market. That’s an amazing twenty-five applications for every one place.
This figure is 50% higher than the 20,000 applications  received for its 2011 intake. Ian [...]]]></description>

		<title>Beat austerity… Food &amp; Drink manufacturers dare to be different!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The new year began precariously for UK Food &#38; Drink manufacturing; as with the global economy many companies are teetering between signs of recovery and omens of collapse!
Being  so risk adverse can create paralysis, but others are maintaining or even increasing profit through consolidation and cost management. This sheds light on a market that surely [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yet again we approach the bonus season for Bankers &#8211; not much seems  to have changed  and yes, we are still talking about it!
The public in the main are still angry about their pay, shareholders undoubtedly have strong views too but are powerless to influence change and block large pay outs to bosses.

		<description><![CDATA[I hope that everyone had an excellent Christmas and New Year. 2011 was not without its challenges but the financial services practice of Interim Partners had another strong performance with growth over 30% for the second year running. Given the level of change within the financial sector I expect 2012 to be equally busy with [...]]]></description>
