  • People risk

    "Critical talent will always exist in deals, whether it is critical in the short-term to accomplish the deal requirements or key to the long-term business case."

  • Talent retention

    "Retention strategies basically strive to provide a strong reason for key talent to stay with the company. Sometimes its simply financial and sometimes non-monetary."

  • Sharing perspectives

    "From both a buyer’s perspective and a seller's perspective, retaining key talent is critical. They are looking at it from opposite angles opposite ends of the transaction. The seller is trying to make sure that I have the talent, and the buyer is looking at the talent they are acquiring to make sure they have the right people in place."

  • Deal success

    "There are ample opportunities for both the buyers and sellers to work together to potentially think about retention mechanisms that straddle the entire transaction timeline."
