People Expert, Katharine Halpin to Speak at M&A Conference

Chicago, IL, July 18, 2017 --(PR.com)-- Understand why 83% of M&A Transactions fail to achieve projected results.

Katharine Halpin has been invited to speak at the Alliance of Merger and Acquisition Advisors Conference in Chicago on July 20, 2017. Her breakfast presentation is entitled “Don’t Become a Statistic…Instead Grow Shareholder Value during M&A Transactions.”

Katharine is an expert in the field of growing shareholder value during transactions and transitions. Her presentation will focus on The Halpin Companies proprietary methods to grow value during tumultuous times by engaging leaders at all levels in more effective ways, communicating in a more aligned manner and using proactive, long-term, strategic thinking as well as getting the right people in the right roles, focused right away on the right projects. She believes that successful change occurs in the lunchroom, not just the Board Room. Katharine is the author of Alignment for Success: Bringing Out the Best in Yourself, Your Teams and Your Company.

The Halpin Companies is a Phoenix, AZ based firm that has worked across the US and in Europe and the UK since 1995. Katharine founded this firm in an effort to fill a void she saw everyday in her CPA career. “Transactions and transitions fail to accomplish the forecasted shareholder goals simply because no one is focused on harnessing the power of the original enterprise. Legal and financial goals become the only focus. By focusing on leveraging the original enterprises’ success and getting the right people in the right roles, focused on the right priorities, companies can grow by a factor of 5-10.”

Since 1997 Katharine has spoken on wealth creation and growth for conferences sponsored by the American Institute of CPAs, various State Societies of CPAs, Bar Associations and Estate & Financial Planning Associations. She is the fifth generation of her Mississippi family to be involved in mergers and acquisitions. The clients of The Halpin Companies consistently report they make more money and work fewer hours as a result of using the Halpin proprietary methods to build alignment and grow shareholder value consistently and quickly.
