Various organizational changes such as acquisitions, mergers, demergers and outsourcing are typical ways to create value and develop a company’s operations. Almost all M&As involve a personnel perspective, for example when employees transfer to another employer in connection with a business acquisition or outsourcing. The success of a business aquisition almost always depends on the people, and this success is usually only measured after the business acquisition has been completed. Has there been any negative surprises related to personnel cost structure or terms of employment, have key resources been retained in the new organization, what is the depth and breadth of the to-be-acquired organization, how is the new cohesive organization built, how has the policy changed and how is it harnessed in the work culture, have the business growth targets been met? These are the typical metrics used to measure the success of an organizational change over a longer period of time.
