A deliberate, disciplined approach to change management improves your odds for a smooth transition. It also lays a solid foundation for optimizing post-close. The key is to incorporate change management as early as possible.
Working closely with the integration / separation management office, our team of change management experts start by assessing change impacts associated with the transaction and answering critical questions like how will leadership operate? Which culture will be adopted? How will individual jobs be impacted? These drivers then inform action-ready plans to address leadership alignment and governance, stakeholder management, communications, cultural integration, employee retention, and training development and delivery.
