New HR Partner Brings Global Experience and Expertise

Chairman's Message, December 2015
By Jim Jeffries, Chairman, M&A Leadership Council

It is my great pleasure to welcome Towers Watson (soon to become Willis Towers Watson when the anticipated merger closes next month) to the M&A Leadership Council for our 2016 programs.  They represent the best of global M&A people practices and are the “go to” organization for every realm of Human Resource expertise.  The Towers Watson team and the Council have been working together to bring you a powerful 2-day workshop, the “Art of M&A for HR Leaders” in Orlando next month.  Headlined by TW, the event will also feature legal and regulatory modules by Baker & McKenzie and integration tactics for HR presented by M&A Partners.  This will be an exceptional program and we are excited to have Jim McKay and his team on board.  You can learn more about the workshop HERE.

With the holidays around the corner, who knows what next year will bring?  There is a great deal of uncertainty on the world stage.  All I know is that the M&A Leadership Council is thankful for friends like you and the many alumni that have taken advantage of our training programs throughout the years.  We will continue to maintain our position as the prime source of knowledge, best practices, tools and certifications for the M&A community.

We wish you a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and a prosperous and safe New Year.
