Timing of Communication in Organizational Culture Change Processes: The Case of a Domestic Acquisition

Daniel Dauber

Chapter 1 in International Management and Intercultural Communication, 2015, pp 1-22 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This case study meticulously charts a commercial acquisition, with the objective of demonstrating the importance of synchronizing organizational communication with organizational change, if both parties are not to suffer traumatic culture shocks. Dauber clearly illustrates the need to find common ground before implementing major decisions, in order to create synergies and harmonize operations that will ease the transition from two companies into one.
