Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) has become extremely competitive globally M&A is an increasingly common occurrence for businesses both large and small – offering the promise of achieving significant growth and competitive advantage in a market.
Yet the goals of most mergers are not achieved – with the understandable focus on the financial potential of an M&A deal, “people issues” are often not addressed, unseen and, at times, under-appreciated.
The Human Resource (HR) department plays a pivotal role throughout the M&A process as mistakes regarding HR issues can often result in a failed merger. The HR team plays a key role in not only managing crises as well as disputes but preventing them in the first place through an understanding of the people and cultures that impact the deal.
