Synopsis

Presenting the results of a Towers Perrin worldwide survey of more than 400 human resource executives, this book reveals the challenges that companies face during the merger and acquisition process. It concludes that the most common reason mergers fail is people-related issues. A case is made that strategic people management is as crucial to a successful merger or acquisition as a sound strategy or fair valuation. Tips are provided on how best to handle clashes of culture, management disagreements about the future of the new company, loss of productivity, loss of key talent, and managing change. An argument is made that human resources executives should be included in decision making throughout the merger process, not just after the fact.
