    The Personnel Side of Mergers and AcquisitionsAvailable to Executive Members

    Webcast: October 28, 2009
    According to a KPMG study, "83% of all mergers and acquisitions (M&As) failed to produce any benefit for the shareholders and over half actually destroyed value". Why do so many mergers or acquisitions fail? May experts agree-- if the employees of the companies are not properly onboarded or corporate cultural hostilities exist, the m&a may be doomed from the start. What can you do to protect your company and your people during this type of transition? While financial goals may be the overarching reason for mergers and acquisitions, of M&A deals that are successful, 85% include HR throughout the entire process, resulting in high-impact change management processes that successfully marry different corporate cultures and retain key talent. more »

    Building A Business Case for On and Off Boarding: Making the Dollars CountAvailable to Executive Members

    Webcast: April 23, 2009
    Every dollar spent on turnover represents not only lost income, but also lost opportunity. Within the first 90 days of hire, we have the greatest opportunity to engage and motivate new employees. Yet study after study tells us that most companies do a poor or mediocre job of on-boarding. Are we throwing away our recruitment dollars by sidelining the on-boarding process? Are the same mistakes being made when an employee leaves and successful knowledge transfer fails to occur?

    Now more than ever, we need to be able to stretch our resources and account for all expenditures. Join us for this webcast that examines many of the common mistakes made by corporations, and what you can do to avoid them. We'll examine ways to improve your process-- and show how to make a compelling case for increased attention to on and off boarding to your executive team. more »

    Your ATS and Your Hiring Manager: Connecting Stakeholders Through TechnologyAvailable to Executive Members

    Webcast: August 26, 2008
    Here's a quick field test: find the last candidate you sent to a hiring manager. What delivery method did you use? E-mail, fax, interoffice/courier, or did you move the candidate to the corresponding folder in your ATS? If you are not using all of the functionality of your recruitment technology you are simply not getting your return on investment.

    Almost every applicant tracking system has designed a hiring manager portal, with appropriate security access levels and integration elements, like email systems and appointment calendaring options. Yet most organizations are not using these features enterprise-wide. In this webcast, we'll take a closer look at why acquisition leaders and practioners are reluctant to do so, and examples from leading employers that have successfully paired their hiring managers and their applicant tracking systems. more »
