8

9 Communication Tips What worked well for this merger? - Business Plan agreed early - Defined culture first - Agreed Values quickly - Getting the right people to talk to each other - Dealing with the difficult issues quickly - Recording all issues and risks which let people know they were being listened to

10 Communication Tips What we would do differently next time? - Get the right people to meet as early in the process as possible - We only set the Communication Working Group up in Irvine not in Riverside - Lack of understanding between English and Scottish issues

11 It s good to talk. Communication Tips

12 Supporting and Engaging Employees

13 Supporting and Engaging Employees We recognised: - that the people who are going to bring the partnership together are our people - that how good the partnership will work from day one will be down to how we support and engage our people - we needed to increase the level and forums of communication and consultation

14 Supporting and Engaging Employees What did we do? - absolutely loads - Increased Staff Newsletters/Briefing Notes - Held quarterly briefing sessions - Regularly met with staff representative group - Identified for them: - What it meant (good and bad) - What the future would look like - How they would feel

15 Supporting and Engaging Employees

16 Supporting and Engaging Employees Give them control and trust: Staff raised the problems Staff looked at the options Staff found the solution

17 Supporting and Engaging Employees What could we have improved on: - Allowed more time for IT integration - Huge frustrations - Invested in coaching for Line Managers - Have a toolkit for mergers - Currently being developed

18 Supporting and Engaging Employees Here s a video from some of the Irvine staff about what it meant to merge with the Riverside organisation.

19

20 Supporting and Engaging Employees How did we get them to be so positive? - Be honest - Recognise its difficult - Appreciate what staff are going through - Defined structures early - Have some fun along the way

21 Supporting and Engaging Employees - Make promises and deliver them - Good communications - Have forums for them to ask questions - Log and address all issues raised - Keep the laughter going

22 Maintaining Performance

23 Maintaining Performance How do both organisations keep performing during this transitional process that can last years? How do both organisations come together to find mutual ground on maintaining key performance indicators?

24 Maintaining Performance We identified 21 business streams that laid out their performance both during and after the merger Each business stream had a leader We agreed what the key performance indicators were after the merger date We reviewed and updated our performance management framework

25 Maintaining Performance We broke integration down into two phases Phase 1 completion due by end of Dec 11 Phase 2 completion due by 1 April 12 We focused our staff conference on employee engagement to improve performance We were delighted with the results

26 Maintaining Performance The Best Companies results in the not for profit sector were: Riverside Group 88 th Irvine Housing Association 23 rd Phenomenal achievement given all the challenges facing both organisations pre merger

27 How did we succeed? We had: - Leadership from the top - Staff commitment - Staff determination - Decision makers - Excellent project team - Great communication
