203: The M&A Toolkit: People Strategy for Business Success

Monday, 23 April 2012 - 3:00pm to 4:15pm
Workplace Application: 

Strengthen your organization’s position during growth transitions by aligning people strategies with key business value drivers.

In an acquisition, you’re either the acquirer or the acquired — but being acquired doesn’t mean getting eaten. This high-stakes, rapidly changing game of cat and mouse is the most critical time for business and people strategies to be aligned. Understand key terms used during mergers and acquisitions that determine or drive your people strategy, and demonstrate to dealmakers your business value drivers and the people strategies that support them.
