Will the early years of the new century continue to witness the
huge growth in merger and acquisition activity which marked the end
of the last? The chances are that they will - witness the value of
deals carried out by the top five investment banks in the first
quarter of 2001 alone ($456.2 billion). The quest for the golden
fleece is alive and well. Will the majority of M&As continue to
fail to achieve their potential value? This book is about breaking
out of the cycle of grand strategy, great prospects, poor
implementation, lost opportunities. The authors believe that it is
possible for M&As to realise their value - and more.
Bringing home the golden fleece involves more than just setting
sail in quest for riches. It's about understanding the
destination/end game, and working out the most appropriate route.
This book has been written with the practitioner in mind, with the
thirteen chapters split into three sections. The first section
provides an overview of the merger process and outlining the key
elements of success. Section Two focuses on the nuts & bolts of
managing the integration process - from transition to full
integration. Illustrated by a detailed case study of Articon
Integralis AG, the leading supplier of IT Security Solutions and
Services in Europe. The final section looks at the themes that can
make or break mergers - creating the culture of the new
organisation, communications, retention and the roles of line
managers and HR. Each section is supported by checklists that
should be helpful whether you are a novice at the merger game or an
expert.
Contains tools, recommendations/checklists designed to help
practitioners survive and thrive in a M&Asituation.
Supported by a wealth of acclaimed research & case studies
conducted by Roffey Park. One core case study Articon Intergralis
is followed throughout the book plus other examples from global
companies including Citicorp, Deutsche Bank, BP Amoco and
Siemens.
User-friendly guide to M&A's which will be helpful to not only
the core audience of HR professionals but CEO's, transition teams,
line managers and anyone who wants to understand how to make
mergers work.
