    Chapter Case

    We Merged...Now What?
    Earlier this month, your company, a running equipment designer and manufacturer
    called Runners Paradise, merged
    with a smaller clothing design company called ActiveLeak. Your company initiated the
    buyout because of the excellent design team at ActiveLeak and their brand recognition,
    specifically for their MP3-integrated running shorts. Runners
    Paradise has thirty-five employees and ActiveLeak has ten employees. At ActiveLeak,
    the owner, who often was too
    busy doing other tasks, handled the HRM roles. As a result, ActiveLeak has no strategic
    plan, and you are wondering if
    you should develop a strategic plan, given this change. Here are the things you have
    accomplished so far:
    • Reviewed compensation and adjusted salaries for the sake of fairness. Communicated
    this to all affected employees.
    • Developed job requirements for current and new jobs.
    • Had each old and new employee fill out a skills inventory Excel document, which has
    been merged into a database.
    From this point, you are not sure what to do to fully integrate the new organization.
    1. Why should you develop an HRM strategic plan?
    2. Which components of your HR plan will you have to change?
    3. What additional information would you need to create an action plan for these
    changes?

    1. The company has grown to now have almost 30% more staff than before. In
    addition to ensuring that the merger is successful, it is of utmost importance that the HR
    department's plan is aligned with the company's expectations regarding current
    employees and especially new employees. A well-designed HRM strategic plan is
    therefore essential in this scenario.

    2. It has already started well by matching salary values, and the definition of each
    position, it is now very important to develop a successful retention plan, training, and
    performance evaluation methods for all employees.

    3. It is very important to evaluate the sales of both companies, not only sales but
    payroll, profit, general expenses, mainly from Actionleak as this was probably managed
    by the company owner, so the HR department will have a better view of the current
    workforce is compatible or there will be a need for new hires, also helping to assess
    whether wages and benefits are compatible with what the company can offer.
