Deloitte has acquired substantially all of the assets of Oakland, Calif.-based Bersin & Associates, a provider of research-based membership programs and advisory services in the human resources (HR), talent and learning market.
Combined with Deloitte's leading human capital and talent capabilities, Deloitte and Bersin will provide the talent marketplace with broad HR and talent management solutions ranging from data, research and analysis, strategic insights and technology selection through final implementation.
"The rise of globalization, changes in the labor model, shifting workforce dynamics and significant cost pressures are elevating the strategic importance of the HR function among the C-suite," says Barbara Adachi, national managing director, Human Capital, Deloitte Consulting. "The acquisition provides our clients with an enhanced portfolio of HR and talent management research, benchmarking and advisory services to help them address these challenges—all from a single source. Together we can help companies navigate the future direction of HR while adding strategic value to their bottom line."
The Bersin team will remain intact focused on delivering analytics, research, and tools that employers use as a foundation for day-to-day decision making and will operate under the name Bersin by Deloitte.
