Managing Cultural Differences examines the cultural and
organizational complexities which arise during mergers &
acquisitions, joint ventures and alliances. More than 50% of all
corporate alliances fail, and those concluded across cultural
divides are even less likely to succeed. These failures can be due
to the executives concentrating on the financial strategic aspects
of the deal at the expense of cultural, organizational and
execution aspects.
As a result of a 5-year research, Piero Morosini found that
national cultural differences are not necessarily detrimental to
cross-border mergers and alliances, but rather if handled
effectively can actually enhance corporate performance. Managing
Cultural Differences demonstrates that superior 'execution skills'
can lead to the successful implementation of overseas alliances. It
is based on rigorous research methods, backed up with indepth
interviews with Senior Executives and real world case studies of
leading multinationals. The book explains the strategic
relationship between national cultural differences, execution and
the performance of global and corporate alliances.
The unique findings in this book are a reflection of the
author's background that has combined academia and management.
Piero Morosini is a Research Fellow at the Wharton Risk Management
and Decision Process Center, USA and a Managing Consultant at
Andersen Consulting Strategic Services Group in Milan. He was
formerly a consultant for McKinsey & Co and has had extensive
international experience with JP Morgan and Flemings. Morosini has

Journal and Journal of International Business Studies.
