Essential Controls

Stan Lees

Chapter Chapter 9 in Global Acquisitions, 2003, pp 109-113 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Getting the controls in place has various meanings in an acquisition context. It can mean hard controls like budgets and financial controls and IT systems and procedures. It can mean human controls like getting key people in charge on each side. Or it can have a softer connotation like management styles or the invisible control exercised by an organisation’s culture.
