The problem:
Mergers & acquisitions are a time of transition that if managed badly can result in a huge range of problems. Employees sense of identify can be threatened by an acquisition to such an extent that they either choose to leave or struggle to feel a part of the newly merged organisation. Many acquiring companies lose hugely talented people as a result of the way they manage the change.
What we offer:
I can work with you before, during or post the transition
Pre-merger to undertake an analysis of the culture of each organisation, identify possible clashes that may arise and steps we can take to mitigate them.
During the merger to advise you on how to design strategies that will engage your employees in the change process.
Post-merger to assess the effects of a merger or acquisition on your people and their sense of belonging and identification with the new organisation. I will advise you on how to address the issues so that the two organisations become one organisation with a strong culture.
