  • Speed of Execution in Leadership Shake-Ups
    Speed of execution in leadership shake-ups is the secret to M&A success M&A deals have a greater chance of success if acquirers move quickly to install a new leadership team at the target firm, a study shows. Research by Cass Business School found higher rates of deal success among acquirers which rapidly appointed a top team at the target while retaining a large proportion of the operational staff. The findings come from a report by Cass’s M&A Research Centre which reveals a series of fresh insights into improving returns from M&A deals. The study examined a sample of 70 large transactions completed by US and UK acquirers between 2007 and 2011, comparing those which were successful in creating shareholder value with a matched sample of those where shareholder value was destroyed. The findings showed that: Companies which retained operational staff boosted their success rate. Successful deals posted 63 per cent retention rates for operational and business personnel, while in the failed deals group the rate was 46 per cent six months after completion. Successful acquirers were quicker to remove and replace the senior executive team. In the successful group, only 38 per cent of CEOs and 19 per cent of CFOs remained in post six months after completion, compared to 44 per cent and 38 per cent respectively in the failed group. Companies with a greater focus on HR – measured by the existence of an HR committee at board level – are more successful acquirers. There were more than twice the number of HR- specific committees in the successful deal group than in the failure group.

  • Healthcare Management & Services Research
    Healthcare Management & Services Research Incubator Sponsored by the Warwick Business School, Cass Business School and BMJ Leader Location: WBS London (The Shard, SE1 9SG) Date & Time: 9am – 3pm on December 12th 2019 The purpose of the incubator is to help people develop and advance research ideas, with an eventual aim towards publication and communication with broader audiences. The incubator is designed to be inter‐disciplinary, engaging with clinicians and clinical researchers, social scientists, management researchers and more. We believe that research can best facilitate improvement in healthcare systems when it is inter‐disciplinary, and when researchers rooted in one research community or disciplinary perspective are exposed to other research traditions in a way that enables them to communicate their work across boundaries. The incubator is co‐organized by Warwick Business School, City, University of London's Centre for Health Innovation Research, Faculty of Medical Leadership and Management, and BMJ Leader. Plenary speaker: Sara J. Singer, Professor of Medicine and of Organizational Behaviour, Stanford University Mentors: Amit Nigam (Cass Business School, UK) Angela Aristidou (Warwick Business School, UK) Davide Nicolini (Warwick Business School, UK) Nicola Burgess (Warwick Business School, UK) Harry Scarbrough (Cass Business School, UK) Giulia Cappellaro (Bocconi University, Italy) Charitini Stavropoulou (City, University of London, UK) Agenda Thursday, December 12th WBS London campus: 17th floor of The Shard, 32 London Bridge Street, London, SE1 9SG 9:00 Registration and welcome coffee 9:30‐ Welcome and overview of the day from Angela Aristidou (WBS) and Amit Nigam 9:45 (Cass Business School) 9:45‐ Academic ice‐breaker 10:00 We expect most participants to know very little about one another, and this exercise will help you learn more about the other participants, and perhaps discover common research interests.

  • International Workshop at Cass Business School, City University London
    International Workshop at Cass Business School, City University London Management Control for Sustainability: Exploring the Roles of Tools, Practices and Packages November, 27th, 2014 Overview of the workshop Whilst embedding sustainability within organizations appears as a crucial objective to academics and practitioners alike (Bertels, Papina & Papina, 2010; Moon et al., 2011), the way forward remains highly debated. Interest in such matters has grown amongst management control scholars, who have increasingly considered how control systems could and should contribute to the integration of sustainability within strategy and organizational behaviours (Bebbington & Thomson, 2013). This is reflected in the special issues recently published by prominent journals in the accounting field (see Accounting, Organization and Society, 2014; Management Accounting Research, 2013). Findings that suggest management control systems (MCS) can effectively drive change (Arjaliès & Mundy, 2013; Hopwood, 2009) are counterbalanced by evidence that they can also serve to reinforce the profit-seeking paradigm (Contrafatto & Burns, 2013) and may not necessarily prevent the decoupling of sustainability goals from financial goals (Durden, 2008; Gond et al., 2012). Accordingly, the domain of sustainability appears as a useful space to further explore the dynamics whereby MCS can enhance (or not) the consistency between organizations’ strategy, activities and organizational members’ behaviours (Otley, 1999). Recent research on MCS also suggests moving beyond analyses of MCS considered in isolation, to focus on their dynamic relationships with actors’ practices (Adams & McNicholas, 2007; Arjaliès & Mundy, 2013) and their interactions with other systems through consideration of the ‘MCS package’ (Grabner & Moers, 2013). This workshop brings together scholars from the field to aim at furthering discussions on the roles of MCS in relation to sustainability by focusing on their influence on actors’ practice and/or by considering the role they play as a package within organizational contexts.
