Mercer to Host 2017 M&A Ready Executive Development Program in San Francisco, Toronto, New York and Chicago

Mercer, a global consulting leader in advancing health, wealth and careers, and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Marsh & McLennan Companies (NYSE: MMC), will once again host its M&A Ready™ Executive Development Program in San Francisco (April 26-27), Toronto (May 10-11), New York (June 7-8) and Chicago (October 25-26) this year. Senior HR executives, business unit leaders, and corporate development, strategy and finance executives are invited to attend.

Now in its 14th year, Mercer’s globally acclaimed M&A Ready Program addresses the latest developments, trends and best practices around critical people and HR issues that drive and determine M&A success, such as key talent assessment and retention, workforce engagement, compensation and benefit benchmark data, and cultural integration.

The intensive, highly interactive two-day workshop covers every deal phase, from planning through to post-deal implementation. Upon completion of the program, M&A Ready graduates will be better prepared to:

Manage real-world people-related challenges
Identify risks and opportunities for various deal types
Capture greater synergies from transactions

“The M&A boom is set to continue in 2017, with a surplus of cash scouring the global market for quality assets,” said Jeff Cox, Senior Partner and Global M&A Transaction Services Leader, Mercer. “With over $6 trillion in cash and short-term securities on corporate balance sheets around the world (including $2.5 trillion in cash held by US companies outside the US - poised to be repatriated pending new reduced tax legislation) and over $130 billion of cash held by activists and hedge funds forcing many publicly held companies to evaluate and divest non-core assets, there is an enormous opportunity – and challenge – for companies to protect the value of their deals, which requires them to consider the magnitude of people issues at the outset.”

Mercer is the pre-eminent global advisor on people issues in M&A transactions. The firm’s dedicated team of 150 M&A transaction consultants work on more than 1,200 deals a year across all industries with both corporate and financial buyers/sellers. Over the past 14 years, more than 5,000 professionals from a diverse mix of companies around the world have endorsed the M&A Ready program, consistently rating it 4.8 out of 5.0.
