Book excerpt: In today's business environment, market maturity and globalization have increased the level of competition, making it more difficult to capture and increase market share. This has led to the age of mergers and acquisitions (M&A), where the easiest way to grow your business and deliver shareholder value is to acquire and merge companies and their revenue streams.The net result is that most people will either have to experience and survive M&As firsthand, or at least know someone that has gone through a merger or acquisition in their professional career. Though management will paint M&As as a "win-win" for all those involved, the reality is that the only people who win are the executive management teams. The remaining employees are trapped in the middle trying to make M&As work for their own survival.10 Truths of Mergers and Acquisitions: A Survival Guide lays out the reality of what happens when companies are acquired or merged. Starting with The Truth of Mergers: "There are no mergers, only acquisitions," each truth is conveyed with humor and irony, backed by real-life examples, and offers guidelines for success to help you survive the situation. Dr. C. M. Cower shares his own personal M&A mistakes and lessons learned, preparing you to delicately tread through the minefield of acquisitions and mergers.

Book excerpt: Companies around the globe are increasingly pursuing M&A as a growth strategy. Odds are, at some point in your career, your company will be one of them. Jennifer J. Fondrevay, an M&A expert who has led teams and brands through three separate multibillion-dollar acquisitions, reveals that these transitions are as stressful as a major loss or moving to another country. The normal human reactions of fear, anger, anxiety, and denial can make the experience hellish, make leading change overwhelming, and keep you from capitalizing on opportunities. To help you navigate the chaos and your emotions and to see how M&A can, in fact, further your career, Jennifer has written NOW WHAT?, the guide she wished for years ago. Based on 60 interviews with M&A integration survivors and practitioners, NOW WHAT?: Explains the drivers behind M&A so that you can anticipate what's coming and start to appreciate where the opportunities might be. Exposes the post-deal experience for what it is: a journey from denial to acceptance through the M&A stages of grief. Identifies the "cast of change" characters (e.g., the Former Rock Star, the Black Widow, etc.) and how to engage them. Helps you construct a total "survive and thrive" game plan for cultivating the right mindset, collaborating with the "other side," and finding your niche to succeed. NOW WHAT? helps anybody in the middle of it all, from C-suite executives to team leaders and players, come out stronger on the other side to help their companies do the same.

Download or read book Mergers and People written by Guido Stein and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this technical note is precisely to consider the human dimension of mergers and acquisitions and the way these processes impact people. In the substantial body of scientific literature that exists on this topic, authors discuss the rules and “magic” formulas that lead to a successful acquisition, grounding their arguments in empirical evidence. One of the first conclusions that can be drawn from examining this literature is that the authors cite a wide variety of empirical evidence in each case, and that this evidence serves to support different, and even contradictory, theses concerning the key aspects and elements of company acquisitions. Rationalizations are made a posteriori and seek to offer rules, or something close to that. They should be taken as broad approximations, but do point in the right direction. As a result, they are perhaps more useful for those whose work involves taking action than they are for academics concerned with scientific rigor.Acquisitions affect everyone involved to one degree or another. They are not neutral transactions in any sense: not from a financial, tax, legal, operational or commercial perspective, and especially not in terms of how they impact the people in both companies involved and other stakeholders (shareholders, suppliers, customers, etc.).For many companies, mergers by acquisition have become a recurrent strategy for dealing with competition, gaining market share, or simply ensuring their survival. Their impact on stock markets is noted within hours, but their consequences for the people who live though them are rarely reflected in the media.In this technical note we will address a number of issues related to mergers. First, we will look at the key reasons why companies decide to pursue them and the reasons why many fail (Sections 1 and 2). Second, we will consider the inevitable realities associated with mergers (Section 3). In Section 4 we will discuss human due diligence. Section 5 will focus on the importance of merger and integration committees. Finally, in Section 6, we will offer a practical guide on how to professionally survive operations of this kind. In tackling these issues, we will draw on the experience of managers who have gone through merger processes and ground our discussion in the scientific literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What makes the Advances in Mergers and Acquisitions series stand out is its focus on all three characteristics that make up this research field – studies from scholars in different countries, with different research questions, relying on different theoretical perspectives. Such a broad, and inclusive, approach to mergers and acquisitions is not easily replicated in academic journals, with much narrower mandates and metrics. The collections published each year provide cutting edge ideas by leading scholars on a global scale. Topicality In light of the enormous sums being invested in growth-via-acquisition strategies, as well as ‘survival through merger’ strategic decisions, academic research on mergers and acquisitions has never been more important. The current worldwide recession and enormous difficulties experienced by many companies throughout the globe have resulted in greater consolidation and mergers in a variety of sectors. With these widespread mergers, joint ventures and re-alignments, it is not surprising that academic research on mergers and acquisitions has been similarly robust. Each collection of articles that makes up a volume of Advances in Mergers and Acquisitions paints a picture of contemporary research on this topic. Advances in Mergers and Acquisitions brings together a series of articles from academics around the world with the expressed purpose of enhancing our knowledge of the entire M&A process, from strategic analysis to integration. Key Benefits By bringing together a collection of papers by scholars from different disciplines, with different research agendas, and hailing from a variety of countries yet all of whom are tackling the same general phenomenon, this series offers something that cannot be easily replicated in other forums. Integrative and expansive in its choice of research questions and theoretical underpinnings Advances in Mergers and Acquisitions offers a unique perspective on this diffuse topic that helps scholars think about mergers and acquisitions in new ways, building the knowledge base on this critical topic. Key Audiences The series provides a diverse explanation of topics and methods provided by scholars from around the world, and is essential reading for all academics, researchers and practitioners involved in the areas of mergers and acquisitions. Coverage The Advances in Mergers and Acquisitions series comprises of leading international scholars from a range of disciplines exploring the economic, financial, strategic or organizational behaviour aspects of mergers and acquisitions. A diversity of disciplines, perspectives, countries, topics, issues, methodologies and research questions are represented in each volume. The series explores a wide range of topical issues, from employees’ attitudes toward post-merger integration, to ‘culture fit’, to transitional governance arrangements, to the effects of complexity and post-merger/post-acquisition integration. Coverage includes, but is not restricted to: Strategy Organizational integration Culture Leadership Financial analysis Human resource planning
