What is business turnaround?
A business turnaround refers to all the strategic and operational actions aimed at turning around an organization in a serious crisis situation: recurring financial losses, cash flow shortages, loss of stakeholder confidence or risk of insolvency.
Unlike a classic restructuring, turnaround requires quick and often difficult decisions that internal teams cannot always make alone, due to a lack of neutrality or external legitimacy. This is the role of the specialized interim manager.
At Manag-in, our digital platform connects your company in a few minutes to certified, available profiles selected by an advanced matching algorithm — at a commission up to 6 times lower than traditional firms.

FAQ
Your questions about management
from transition to turnaround
What is the average duration of a rollover mission? +
The duration varies according to the complexity of the situation. On average, a flip mission lasts between 6 and 18 months. The emergency stabilization phase represents the first 2 to 3 months, followed by a transformation and consolidation phase. The Manag-in platform allows you to adjust the duration in real time, and to start in 24 hours thanks to our managers available immediately.
What is the difference between a Manag-in interim manager and a consultant? +
The consultant analyzes and recommends. The Manag-in interim manager acts: he takes real operational responsibility, manages teams, signs decisions and reports directly to the board or shareholders. He is GRI certified and selected on his past real assignments — not on a resume.
When should you call on an interim turnaround manager? +
As soon as possible. Our white paper shows that companies that act at the first warning signs have significantly higher recovery rates. Don't wait for the cessation of payment: with Manag-in, a first brief takes 10 minutes and you have 3 profiles in 6 minutes.
Is Manag-in suitable for SMEs? +
This is precisely our founding mission. Traditional firms, with fees at 50%, effectively exclude SMEs. Manag-in was created to democratize interim management and make it accessible to all sizes of companies, with commissions starting at 8% and a fully digital platform.
How does Manag-in select its managers? +
Each manager is selected on the basis of his or her verified technical skills, experience in real crisis situations, soft skills, and a certified GRI behavioral analysis. Profiles are regularly reassessed and past assignments are checked. The platform updates availability in real time.
Your situation is urgent.
