The Psychology of Acquiring: Why Employees Act the Way They Do

Nancy Hubbard

Chapter 2 in Acquisition, 1999, pp 18-46 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract To fully understand the ramifications of why acquisitions create such stress and employee angst, it is important to explore how employees feel and think during the process: their concerns and reactions to events. In order to do so, I have used principally my own research into employee behaviour during acquisition as a basis for this chapter.
