Umbrella Organization Austrian Interim Management

I am very pleased to announce that I am now officially a member of the umbrella organization Austrian Interim Management (DÖIM). This membership marks a significant milestone in my career as an interim manager and opens up numerous new opportunities for professional development and networking.

DÖIM is the national platform for professionals in the field of interim management in Austria [source: 2]. As an umbrella association, the organization is committed to publicizing and promoting the profession of interim manager, promotes the exchange of experience among its members and attaches great importance to maintaining high quality standards [source: 2].

Advantages of DÖIM membership

As a DÖIM member, I benefit from a number of advantages that support and enrich my work as an interim manager:

Distribution and visibility

A key aspect of DÖIM membership is increased visibility and profiling through active participation in the association [source: 1]. I can now use the DÖIM logo as proof of quality, which gives my professional profile additional credibility [source: 1].

Quality standards and ethical guidelines

Membership of the DÖIM is regarded as proof of high quality in interim management [source: 2]. This obliges me to always work according to the highest professional standards and to continuously develop myself further.

As a full member of DÖIM, I undertake to conduct myself in an impeccable professional manner and to comply with the DÖIM Code of Conduct [source: 2] [source: 3]. This code includes important principles such as confidentiality, transparency and professionalism, which are essential for the success of any interim management project.

Information and training

DÖIM provides its members with a wealth of services and information [source: 1]. These include current articles, publications and checklists for download, which help me in my daily work as an interim manager [source: 1].

In addition, the organization offers training and further education as well as information on legal and social security issues [source: 1]. This is particularly valuable as the environment for interim managers is constantly evolving and it is important to stay up to date.

Another advantage is the access to information on insurance topics, especially in the area of liability insurance [source: 1]. This gives me additional security when carrying out my work.

Network and exchange

DÖIM offers me access to an exclusive network of leading interim managers and interim management companies in Austria [source: 1]. By attending the annual general meeting and the Austrian Interim Management industry meeting (Conference for Interim Management – KIM), I can make valuable personal contacts and expand my professional network [source: 1].

I particularly appreciate the opportunity to exchange ideas with other DÖIM members in a closed XING group, discuss current topics and draw attention to interesting events [source: 1].

Cooperation and international networking

DÖIM cooperates with interim management associations at international level, such as DDIM, DSIM and VRIM [source: 1]. As a member, I receive exclusive special conditions for dual memberships, which gives me the opportunity to expand my network beyond Austria’s borders [source: 1].

I find DÖIM’s cooperation with EBS and the “Interim Executive Program”, a certificate course for interim management, particularly interesting [source: 1]. As a DÖIM member, I benefit from an exclusive discount on the course costs, which is an excellent opportunity for further training and certification [source: 1].

Admission process and requirements

The path to DÖIM membership was demanding and confirmed my qualifications as an interim manager. The basic requirements for admission included:

A valid membership of the Association of Management Consultants, Accountants and Information Technology Professionals
Several years of management experience in a first or second management level position
Proven experience as an independent interim manager
A professional activity that is in line with the standards of the DÖIM
Recognition of the Code of Ethics – Code of Conduct of the DÖIM
The interest in making an active and positive contribution to the association’s work [source: 3]

The admission process comprised a written application for admission, an admission interview by a member of the Executive Board and the decision by the entire Executive Board [source: 3]. The successful admission confirms my qualifications and my commitment to the industry.

Significance for my professional development

For me, DÖIM membership is more than just a title. It represents my commitment to the highest quality standards in interim management and my willingness to actively contribute to the further development of the industry.

By having access to a broad network of experts, up-to-date information and further training opportunities, I can continuously improve my skills as an interim manager and stay up to date. This enables me to always offer my clients the best possible support and to master complex challenges effectively.

DÖIM membership also strengthens my position in the market. The DÖIM seal of quality lends additional credibility to my profile and signals to potential clients that they are working with a qualified and ethical interim manager.

Outlook and commitment

As a new DÖIM member, I am looking forward to playing an active role in the further development of interim management in Austria. I plan to get involved in working groups, take part in events and share my knowledge and experience with colleagues.

I am particularly excited about the upcoming Conference for Interim Management (KIM), which offers an excellent platform for the exchange of ideas and best practices. Such events are not only an opportunity for networking, but also a source of inspiration for new approaches and solutions in interim management.

Conclusion

Membership of DÖIM marks an important step in my career as an interim manager. It confirms my qualifications, opens up new opportunities for professional development and connects me with leading experts in the industry.

I am convinced that this membership will not only benefit me personally, but also my clients. With access to up-to-date information, best practices and a strong network, I can contribute even more effectively to supporting companies in times of change and challenge.

DÖIM membership is both an incentive and an obligation for me – an incentive to continuously develop myself and an obligation to maintain and promote the high standards of interim management in Austria. I look forward to the challenges and opportunities that this membership will bring and am proud to be part of this prestigious organization.
