Assignment task:
Cultural Alignment: Given the potential cultural differences between the two companies, there could be a significant impact on both companies' cultures. HR must understand the two companies' cultures by conducting cultural assessments. After that, HR needs to facilitate workshops to set out newly defined values and implement programs to help promote the newly formed culture and values across the organization (JWI556, 2). Talent Management: HR must identify, retain, and integrate key talents from both organizations. This talent management requires assessing the talents' compatibilities and placing them in the proper unit within the newly formed entity. This talent management helps top performers feel valued and motivated to stay with the newly merged entity (1). Do you agree?
