This month’s newsletter highlights how Actiss Africa, IXPA’s partner in Africa, stepped in as Interim HR Director for SXXX Group, one of West Sub-Saharan Africa’s leading insurance companies, following the resignation of their Group HR Director.
Actiss Africa transformed an understaffed, disorganised HR function by rebuilding its structure, streamlining recruitment, implementing a Group-wide HRIS, and enhancing leadership development, resulting in a stronger, more agile team ready to drive growth.

We have landed in Brussels for our annual conference! 🎉
Partners from across the globe have come together once again to discuss the interim management landscape, share market insights and strengthen the connections that make IXPA a truly global alliance.
Introducing IXPA... 🎉
Today we gather in Brussels for IXPA’s global conference. With colleagues from 21 offices across 5 continents, we're coming together to share our vision, hear ideas from leading professionals around the world and deliver what our clients need most.
This provides us with the opportunity to connect perspectives with every corner of the world and meet the priorities that matter most to our clients.
A smarter way to strengthen HR leadership. 💪
Following the departure of their HR manager, a family-run international business opted not to make a direct replacement and instead engaged IXPA’s partner in Austria, Bühler Management, to lead the transformation.
Interim expert Henryk was appointed to strengthen the team, improve performance management and shift HR from a reactive function to a strategic partner.
In just four months, the business now benefits from a more professional, efficient, and forward-looking HR team, with a clear ROI.
This is the value of expert Interim Leadership.
Why More Companies are Turning to Interim Executives for Flexibility and Impact. 💪
Today’s business leaders are expected to deliver results fast, especially during change, uncertainty or transition. That’s why more organisations are choosing interim executives as a strategic solution, not just a temporary fix.
Interim executives bring targeted expertise, objectivity and immediate value, without the lengthy recruitment process or long-term cost. Whether it’s leading through transformation, managing rapid growth or stabilising a business during change, these leaders are built for impact.
At IXPA, our global network of interim executives allows organisations to adapt quickly, fill leadership gaps within days and stay on course, no matter the challenge.

Bridging the Leadership Gap with Interim Expertise. 💪
A leading global consumer goods company needed a Senior Global B2B Business Head, fast. But with market uncertainties and budget constraints, a long-term hire wasn’t the answer.
This is where CxO72 and IXPA India came in. Within 7 days, we placed a top-tier interim leader who:
✅ Drove B2B strategy & partnerships
✅ Achieved measurable growth in Q1
✅ Secured an extended 2-year contract
The result? Strategic flexibility, reduced costs and a seamless leadership transition.
When leadership can’t wait, IXPA delivers.

Interim Management is a Team Game. 🤝
Interim management isn’t just about bringing in expertise and skills- it’s about how well that expertise integrates with your existing team. While interim managers come equipped with specialised knowledge and leadership abilities, their true effectiveness depends on the collaboration they have with the current team.
A successful interim assignment depends on the interim manager’s ability to quickly understand the company culture, align with team goals, and gain the trust of the team. Equally, it relies on the willingness of the existing team to adapt to new leadership and embrace fresh perspectives.
Open communication, mutual respect, and a shared focus on achieving the objectives are key to ensuring the interim manager’s success.
