In this episode, Christina Martini and Jennifer Fondrevay discuss:

  • The importance of human capital challenges and considerations in today’s business world.
  • The characters you may see during a post-deal landscape.
  • Talking about the people from the due diligence phase, not late in the deal.
  • Seeing the opportunity in change.

Key Takeaways:

  • Be open minded, have contingency plans, and be nimble in your interactions during inflection points.
  • M&A transactions are an emotional process for everyone.
  • Bring on a human capital advisor – someone who can advise as to the people challenges you are going to face during an M&A transaction.
  • Know what you’re good at, how it contributes to the new vision, and make sure people know that.

“When you are operating from a position of fear, people act differently.” — Jennifer Fondrevay

About Jennifer Fondrevay: Jennifer is the Founder of Day1 Ready, an M&A deal consultancy that advises forward-thinking business leaders, owners and C-Suite executives on how to prepare for the human capital challenges of Mergers & Acquisitions.

The “survivor” of three multi-billion-dollar acquisitions, Jennifer saw countless growth strategies fail due to a workforce that couldn’t pivot and adapt because they were not able to adapt as quickly as leadership anticipated.

When her Harvard Business Review (HBR) article, After a Merger, Don’t Let “Us vs. Them” Thinking Ruin the Company went viral, Jennifer recognized the power and interest in a human-centric approach to business transformation, where employees are at the heart of the change, not on the sidelines.

She shares her expertise as a contributor to Forbes, Harvard Business Review, Medium, Middle Market Growth, American Marketing Association and Thrive, and as a keynote speaker, most recently for Express Scripts leadership, who were acquired by Cigna for $64 billion in 2018.

Her book, NOW WHAT? A survivor’s guide for navigating and thriving through acquisition, to be published in Oct. 2019, guides executives and middle managers through the transitions brought by M&A to find the opportunities in change and disruption.
