Proactive Communication

Research in the past has documented the use of strategic human resources (HR) integration and proactive communication as best practices in mergers and acquisitions (M&A) to deliver the expected synergy out of a combination (merger or acquisition). The failure of majority of M&A deals has been attributed to improper handling of HR issues and lack of a thorough understanding of the merger/acquisition context by the acquiring management. This study was initiated to understand how proactive communication and strategic integration of HR issues improves the chances of deal success. Based on data collected through field interviews with managers of two bank mergers in India, it was concluded that strategic employee communication, appropriate changes in the performance management system and a compensation structure with cutting edge strategic HR practices paved the way for successful integration and merger success in one of the cases studied.

PT. X merupakan perusahaan yang memiliki bisnis pada bidang kuliner. Sejak didirikan hingga saat ini, PT. X belum pernah mencapai target secara sempurna. Pimpinan PT. X merasa hal tersebut disebabkan karena faktor internal dan faktor eksternal perusahaan. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan intervensi yang dapat mengatasi permasalahan tersebut, yaitu penerapan performance management system berbasis balanced scorecard, karena dapat mendukung peningkatan kinerja perusahaan melalui pengelolaan sumber daya manusia dengan mempertimbangkan kondisi internal dan eksternal perusahaan.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk merumuskan intervensi berupa rancangan performance management system berbasis balanced scorecard yang paling sesuai dengan PT. X untuk meningkatkan kinerja perusahaan melalui pengelolaan sumber daya manusia. Metode penelitian ini adalah research & development. Hasil rancangan intervensi yang telah dirumuskan berupa performance management system pada tahap prerequisites (rumusan harapan pimpinan dan skema arahan strategi, balanced scorecard (objective).Hasil evaluasi terhadap rancangan intervensi, yaitu secara keseluruhan para rater menilai rancangan intervensi yang dirumuskan telah tepat dalam mengatasi permasalahan yang dihadapi, namun pada beberapa hal kurang aplikatif jika saat ini langsung diterapkan di perusahaan. Oleh karena itu, dapat disimpulkan bahwa rancangan intervensi yang telah dirumuskan ini dapat diterima oleh pihak ahli dan user, meskipun terdapat beberapa catatan yang membangun untuk menyempurnakan rancangan intervensi yang telah dirumuskan. Saran yang dapat diberikan berdasarkan penelitian ini, yaitu penelitian selanjutnya harus tetap mengacu pada konsep performance management system tahap prerequisites yang telah dirumuskan, agar pengembangan tetap terintegrasi dengan arah, tujuan, dan strategi perusahaan, serta PT. X juga perlu melakukan pilot test untuk menguji keefektifan rancangan intervensi yang telah dirumuskan.

No other talent process has been the subject of such great debate and emotion as performance management (PM). For decades, different strategies have been tried to improve PM processes, yielding an endless cycle of reform to capture the next “flavor-of-the-day” PM trend. The past 5 years, however, have brought novel thinking that is different from past trends. Companies are reducing their formal processes, driving performance-based cultures, and embedding effective PM behavior into daily work rather than relying on annual reviews to drive these. Through case studies provided from leading organizations, this book illustrates the range of PM processes that companies are using today. These show a shift away from adopting someone else’s best practice; instead, companies are designing bespoke PM processes that fit their specific strategy, climate, and needs. Leading PM thought leaders offer their views about the state of PM today, what we have learned and where we need to focus future efforts, including provocative new research that shows what matters most in driving high performance. This book is a call to action for talent management professionals to go beyond traditional best practice and provide thought leadership in designing PM processes and systems that will enhance both individual and organizational performance.

Research Designs

Best practices in studies of developmental instability, as measured by fluctuating asymmetry, have developed over the past 60 years. Unfortunately, they are haphazardly applied in many of the papers submitted for review. Most often, research designs suffer from lack of randomization, inadequate replication, poor attention to size scaling, lack of attention to measurement error, and unrecognized mixtures of additive and multiplicative errors. Here, I summarize a set of best practices, especially in studies that examine the effects of environmental stress on fluctuating asymmetry.
