CMP, a leading talent development and transition firm, announced that it will be merging with The Frontier Group starting immediately.

The Frontier Group, which has a 31-year track record of delivering solid results as a premier provider of individual career transition solutions, redeployment solutions, and executive coaching, will begin to operate under the CMP brand.

Patrick Lynch, President of The Frontier Group, will stay on post-merger and will assume the title of President, CMP Southeast Region. CMP will continue to be led by CEO, Maryanne Piña, and President, Joe Frodsham.

The new CMP will provide innovative solutions to the full talent lifecycle - from recruiting and leadership development, to coaching, assessment, and career transition support across all major metro areas in the Southwest and Southeast USA along with providing national and global delivery through its strategic alliance relationship with OI Global Partners.

According to Piña, "CMP and Frontier have a complementary set of capabilities, and together we will have greater depth in each practice.  Starting immediately, we have more resources to support clients across the country and globally."

"Merging with CMP makes us all better.  We will provide a unique ROI to our current and future clients through deeper recruiting reach, contemporary development and succession solutions, and uniquely innovative outplacement solutions," says Lynch.

"Our priorities and values are aligned," says Frodsham.  "We now have even greater ability to impact Companies and Candidates with recruiting, leadership coaching and assessment, and career transition solutions."
