People first: the key success factor to enable deal synergies
In today's fast-changing business world, companies heavily rely on deals to secure talent, technology, and innovative ideas for growth. However, deals are complex, and their value can significantly be diminished if talent isn’t secured properly. Compensation and benefit plans introduce an additional risk, and slim HR structures increase the need for experienced HR professionals to support the deal process and ensure goals are met.
It’s crucial to recognise that the most valuable asset in any organisation is its people. When navigating acquisitions, it’s therefore essential to consider workforce changes, benefits adjustments, and organisation. Neglecting human factors has been a common pitfall in many M&A transactions, emphasising the critical importance of addressing people-related issues.
