Mergers & Acquisitions

The right communications strategy, messaging and execution for your merger or acquisition can help drive the stock price and investor confidence, gain customer acceptance and increase employee morale.

We have managed Mergers & Acquisitions communications for big and small transactions, from strategy to execution as an outsourced team, working with companies such as Oclaro, GE Digital, Openwave, Spansion and Trident. Often your internal team is already swamped with executing their day jobs. That’s where Tanis comes in. We partner with your executives and internal communications team to create a communications strategy that unifies the organization and guides day-to-day actions, milestones and activities.

As part of the plan, we work closely with the CEO, the integration management office (IMO) and functional leaders to clearly articulate the company’s vision, values and strategy in a variety of communications including a series of employee communications, investor presentations, media relations, customer and partner communications to reinforce the message and generate enthusiasm and acceptance for the new organization. We also assist organizations after closing of mergers or acquisitions with ongoing communications, integration newsletters, plans and playbooks to prepare for future mergers or acquisitions.
