Interim IT leadership: what matters in the first 30 days
Create transparency, clarify priorities, steer vendors and restore decision readiness.

“Interim IT leadership: what matters in the first 30 days” addresses technical and operational questions. Legal applicability to your organisation, sector and use requires a separate review.
The starting point
Create transparency, clarify priorities, steer vendors and restore decision readiness.
What matters in practice
When projects and incidents compete for the same people, shared priorities may be missing. Inventory current work, risks, suppliers and budget commitments together so leadership can decide what proceeds and what waits.
A defensible checklist
- Consolidate active projects, escalations and critical decisions in one list.
- Clarify owners, decision rights and escalation paths for the most important topics.
- Compare vendors, contracts and budgets with actual priorities.
- Establish a fixed steering and reporting cadence with a small number of reliable KPI.
Next sensible step
A useful early outcome is an agreed short list of key risks, pending decisions and realistically available capacity. This establishes order and a decision cadence. Start new projects when their ownership is clear.
