Global Acquisitions: Strategic Integration and the Human Factor

Review
"...a very confident, quietly authoritative book...Theory, application and practical value intertwine into a consistent whole...which tells me: this guy knows his stuff. He has been there. He knows what is involved...and what questions should be asked." --John W. Hunt, London Business School

Independent consultant Lees provides advice to mergers and acquisitions managers on how to successfully deal with the post-deal integration of acquired firms. Describing the work as a "how to think about doing it" book, he moves from theory to practice in addressing the most common ways managers destroy acquisition value, the dynamics of integration, human reactions in mergers, and the possibilities of culture clashes in mergers.
