peer agreement (net): +1| IM'ers interim-managers Explanation: Given the reference to the 'CAO Hoger Personeel', I think this abbreviation probably stands for 'interim-managers' rather than 'interim-medewerkers'. (PS. Spelling as per the Woordenlijst, see http://woordenlijst.org/#/?q=interim-manager). It might also refer to 'informatiemanagers' (Information Managers). However, as far as I can see on the basis of the relatively limited context information you've provided, I think that's less likely here. In Nederland werken tussen 15.000 en 20.000 interim-managers (IM-ers). De economische waarde die deze markt vertegenwoordigt, bedraagt tussen 3 en 4,5 miljard euro. http://www.adviseurmakelaar.nl/nieuws_detail.php?ID=92 In de Interim Index 6 van Atos Interim Management en Nyenrode Business Universiteit geven meer dan 630 interim-managers hun visie op hoe de IM-markt zich de tweede helft van 2011 ontwikkelt. Jonge interim-managers werken vaker in opdracht, maken veelvuldig gebruik van sociale media, hebben meer nevenactiviteiten en investeren in hun loopbaanontwikkeling. Dat leidt tot meer tevredenheid over het bestaan als zelfstandig ondernemer. Voor oudere interim-managers geldt het tegendeel. Naarmate de leeftijd van IM’ers stijgt, volgen zij minder vaak een opleiding en staat deze ook minder in relatie tot hun vakgebied. Hun concurrentiepositie verzwakt daardoor, en uiteindelijk blijft een vast dienstverband als enige mogelijkheid over. https://www.managementenconsulting.nl/nieuws/algemeen/jonger... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 uren (2016-05-22 11:46:10 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- PS. If this interpretation is correct, the English translation would obviously be interim managers or Interim Managers. I was too focused on explaining the meaning of this abbreviation and therefore mistakenly entered its full version in Dutch :-). As far as I can see, the abbreviation also seems to be used in English with the same meaning. This code sets out the basic principles that apply when appointing an Interim Manager (IM), made by the Charity Commission (“the Commission”) under Section 76(3)(g) of the Act. https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachm... https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/how-the-charity-c... Interim managers (IMs) provide cover for departed executives or for those absent for a lengthy period. As interim management (IM) is a relatively new development, HR departments do not have well-developed processes and procedures either for handling IMs on a day-to-day basis or for integrating them into the strategic staffing systems of their companies. https://www.ashridge.org.uk/Media-Library/Ashridge/PDFs/Publ... |
