Hello,

what is the main difference between turn around and restructuring consulting? (level of distress?)

What is expected from this activity as a consultant?

I recently had an interview with one of the companies in that space.

For them,

turnaround = a campany might fail in 1-2 years because of operational underperformance

restructuring = time to a restructurring situation <=12 mth

I don't believe there is a main differentiation between the two terms. They are widely used as synonyms in the industry!

Cheers, Sidi
