Essential Skills: Restructuring

Managing a turnaround as a project

In a turnaround, it is critical to get the right balance between planning and executing.

The restructuring and turnaround professional must develop an effective turnaround plan that draws attention to critical turnaround initiatives, and implement this plan within the constraints of a turnaround.
