"This topic is one of great importance to our economy and society. The chapters do a good job of identifying the general trends that would lead a company to consider the utilization of an interim manager."

--John Mavers, First VP, Washington Mutual Bank

This is the best (only?) book I've found that covers all of the details of selecting, hiring and managing Interim executives for sales and marketing. Have seen others but they are all from the Interim consultants' POV. This one is a guide for executives on the pros and cons and methodologies to work with Interims to build revenue and new business. Highly recommended.

--John Gilliam, VP, idMetric

I found Leadership on Demand very helpful and very timely. A chapter that is especially useful is Chapter 10 and the discussion about the total cost of a FTE vs. an interim. The authors provide examples and a great template for determining how cost effective an interim is.

--Casey Leaman, Escalade
