Communication Plan Components

-4-

Think like a marketing manager – Projects are projects – and this one never ends – Multiple audiences and multiple products – must craft message accordingly

Exec and Non-Exec, localization

Goal: – Check the box or create engagement and understanding?

Not judging – just be honest – it’s a corporate culture issue “No, John, we really care…we just don’t put any effort or investment into

education.” Company should not expect incredible results from zero effort or investment

Plan Tips

-5-

Again – thinking like a marketing manager

Brand Management – Who are you? – About half of companies have a brand for

recruiting purposes – few manage strategically for retention (or anything else)

Employer Brand

If your company is beginning to take employer brand seriously, use this to your advantage in seeking resources – Best branded companies require consistency of messaging – Even if it isn’t clear internally, if you are in a recruiting mode, it’s important – Employer branding budget often not in HR – it’s in marketing Not just money – bodies, too

-6-

Employer: communicating value – Maximize return on investment in stock plan – Promote a culture of ownership – Employee retention

Employee: appreciating the benefit – Value the stock plan as an important component of total compensation and

benefits – Understand the mechanics of transactions, taxes, and payout of proceeds

Cromlish conducted an acquisition study consisting of two phases as follows: – Interviews with 30 ESOP Executives – 20 were with ESOP acquiring firms

and 10 were with non-ESOP target companies who were acquired by an ESOP company.

– A larger internet survey was distributed to over 3700 ESOP executives.

– The results of both phases are equally enlightening as over 95% of the ESOP acquisitions were successful 2 – 3 years after the acquisition!

Research completed by Suzanne Cromlish, Assistant Professor of Management at Saint Xavier University as Ph.D. candidate from Case Western Reserve University

Three Year ESOP Acquisition Research Study Shows Great Success

All ESOP Acquiring Executives Interviewed: – Extensively planned and strategized prior to the acquisition carefully selecting

complimentary target companies with the same goals, objectives and concern for employee welfare.

– Viewed the target company employees as assets and strategized as to how to retain and locate employment for them.

– Provided extraordinary efforts during the cultural integration by having power point presentations, conducting one on one meetings with every target company employee, installing hot lines, providing dedicated contact people, working side by side, exchanging positions, etc.

For the Target Firms: – The ESOP was a huge factor as they were concerned about the welfare of

their employees after selling their company.

– Some target companies were maxed out prior to the acquisition and needed improved resources, capital investments, training, travel and enhanced technology and benefit packages.

– Open book management and open door communication was a better culture.

– Employees were excited about participating in company ownership.

– The increased level of bureaucracy did create some frustration and new policies and procedures were also a factor .
