Capstone Webinar:
Keys to Integration Success
Thursday, September 17, 2009; 1:00 PM ET

Hosted by David Braun, Capstone CEO

Join Capstone CEO David Braun as he leads a webinar on how to successfully plan and execute the integration of two companies.

The closing of a deal is the fruition of months — even years — of hard work. With it, though, comes a whole new round of work that begins the moment the ink dries on the agreement. The integration of companies is a major operation that requires skill, diligence and patience. It may come at the end of the buying process, but it kicks off a whole new episode — the marriage of two entities, each with its own history, capabilities, weaknesses and culture.

Capstone CEO David Braun will speak on how to make sure that the effort involved in completing an acquisition results in quicker benefits because of a smooth integration.

At the end of the Webinar, participants will be able to:

- Define the options for the level of integration after a merger
- Explain the metrics for a successful integration
- Begin to develop a 100-Day Plan for integration
- Begin the development of a communication plan for employees
- Use a Cultural Assessment Tool to understand cultural differences in two organizations
- Define secondment and why it is important for a successful integration

No Prerequisites or Advanced Preparation needed!

Don’t let a rocky integration spoil the fruits of a partnership that has been primed for success. Let Capstone help you understand how to plan and prepare for a happy marriage of two companies!

The webinar is free and open to the public. David will speak for approximately 45 minutes followed by a 15-minute question-and-answer session.
