The tool I am choosing for the assignment is Visualization 

 Challenge : Take - over of our company by a Big Four . 

 It was in September of 2006 when the COO of my previous company took me into confidence and   informed that one of the Big 4 ’s is prospecting the possibility to acquire the business unit with which I was   associated . I was leading the HR function however due to the fact that I the most tenured employee and   lots of institutional knowledge rested with me and therefore I was to front end the transaction at business   unit level . 

 I understood that I will be working with multiple stake holders , internal and external and transaction will   get complex as it heads towards finish line . I had never been part of M&A activity and hence everything   was new . I knew from beginning that I need to have a very clear picture about how the transaction will   proceed . I call it mental picture . I started with simple board work . Putting the larger picture on board . 

 1 ) Due diligence process .   2 ) Internal stake holders .   3 ) External stake holders .   4 ) Communication . 

 To compound the challenge , I had to work in complete secrecy as per signed terms and conditions . I had   to gather all relevant information , data points from various other functions within the organization   without raising any alarm . A tough ask if you are not creative in your approach . 

 I visualized the entire transaction with what will happen over the next 5 months . Month by month . This   visualization helped me putting up a micro level plan in action . 

 1 ) BU level finance details .    2 ) Asset details .   3 ) HR details .   4 ) MSA with existing clients .   5 ) Infrastructure details . 

 This micro level plan helped me stay ahead of the curve and be ready with most of the information / data   points I will be asked for . I was able to provide raw and processed information no sooner than it was asked   for . This helped in expediting the process and in building confidence for the acquirer . The visualization   which helped me in keeping information and data points ready also helped me providing run time   information . 

 Post finalization of the deal I was got tightly integrated with the acquirer . Again visualization helped me   laying a timeline wise plan which led to seamless cutover . My visualization was around : 

 1 ) Breaking the news on the floor .   2 ) Introduction of key members of acquiring team with the members of team that got acquired .   3 ) Distribution of offer letters . 

 4 ) Acceptance of offer letter . ( 100 % retention of staff )   5 ) Induction of employees who had cutover to the new company .   6 ) Final cutover . 

 Had it not been for visualization It would have been a gargantuan task for me successfully complete the   entire transaction .
