Book Description

March 9, 2001 0471395196 978-0471395195 1
Provides a practical, 10-step process for managing the human aspect of an M&A

M&A activity is higher than ever with acquisitions becoming an important part of every company's growth strategy. The industries heavily engaging in this activity are high-tech, emerging technologies, and utilities.

The M&A Transition Guide is written for executives, managers, and HR professionals involved with any transaction that moves employees from one company to another. Poor workforce integration is a main cause for M&A failures and this book helps managers make the M&A transition a more positive one by providing a plan of action for the integration that focuses on ten critical steps. These steps encompass the entire M&A process from due diligence to employee retention strategies.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential guide for HR staff, April 23, 2001
This review is from: The M&A Transition Guide: A 10-Step Roadmap for Workforce Integration (Hardcover)
Anyone who has watched the matketplace over the last ten years has observed a couple of trends:

- merger and acquisition activity is on an ever-accelerating uptrend, and

- many mergers fail.

Analysis of the failures in M&A typically point to the difficulty of blending disparate cultures.

Hanson has codified her deep experience in managing the HR aspects of mergers and acquisitions. She has taken a complex and delicate topic, the merger of workforces with different cultures and backgrounds, and created a framework and approach that can be applied to this activity to assure a solid result.

This is a solid piece of work that belongs in the library of every HR professional.
