Gem of the day

An inspirational view of "how HR helps the bottom line" from the MD of Centrica Energy:

"Our £1.6bn acquisition of Venture Production last year was a hostile takeover, but we treated it as a merger, so it was crucial to quickly engage and retain a large number of people who had previously thought of us as the enemy. The HR approach from reward to internal communications helped us to change that perception. We’ve retained all our key people and created a top 3 oil and gas business in the North Sea."

Charming.
