Very true, Surabhi. A possible tactic might be to include verbiage within the initial announcement alluding to a plan to retain talent. This way, NewCo employees have hope of a future with the acquiring company. Having HR involved in the very beginning can help craft this message. Many times the acquiring company concentrates only on the financial aspect of the acquisition.
