Turning Resistance Into Resilience: Managing Employee Concerns in M&A
HR M&A Practitioner
Join us for a session on turning resistance into resilience, exploring strategies to manage employee concerns, foster engagement, and drive success during M&A transitions.
In this session, we’ll explore practical strategies HR professionals can use to address and alleviate employee concerns, including transparent communication, fostering a culture of trust, and providing the right support systems. You’ll learn how to identify the root causes of resistance and apply tailored solutions to enhance employee engagement and productivity.
We’ll also discuss the importance of leadership alignment, the role of change management practices, and ways to create a sense of ownership and empowerment among employees during the M&A process. Through real-life case studies and interactive discussions, you’ll gain valuable insights into how other organizations have successfully turned employee skepticism into resilience, ultimately strengthening the overall company culture.
Whether you're in the early stages of an M&A or in the midst of integration, this session will provide you with actionable tools and techniques to navigate employee concerns and ensure a smoother transition, driving long-term success for both the organization and its people.
THIS GLOBAL ROUNDTABLE IS OPEN TO ALL HR M&A PRACTITIONERS.
We host global roundtables the 2nd Tuesday of every month.

What is the HR M&A Roundtable?
The HR M&A Roundtable is a forum for Human Resources professionals and others managing the people, leadership, and culture issues in Mergers & Acquisitions. We offer roundtable sessions, training, tools, and an annual conference.
Who participates in roundtable discussions?
Participation is limited to HR or Corporate Development professionals who are either in a role with M&A responsibilities or who anticipate managing a transaction in the next 12 months.
Where are roundtable sessions held?
We host global virtual roundtable sessions every month. These 60-minute sessions focus on a particular topic of interest to practitioners. Discussions are led by a seasoned HR M&A practitioner who will help ensure what you share can be applied to your deal work. Past topics have included leadership retention, culture assessment, global deals, and total rewards alignment.
We also offer Regional Roundtable sessions in many cities, including Chicago, New York, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Austin, Denver, and London. These sessions usually take place face-to-face but have moved to a virtual format in response to the pandemic.
