Abstract: It starts with the leader; it moves on to management and then to the last leg of the organisation, when it comes to any major development in the organisation. The leader should be able to envision the future and take along the organisation in the right direction making it successful. In this study, employee perception is measured post completion of the merger or acquisition process and after an average and minimum of two years; what are the outcomes from the employee perspective? Therefore, this study aims to investigate and measure the perception and identify the antecedents and consequences in terms of human resources in the IT industry and further validate the proposed model. This study has used survey methodology with five acquired companies in IT sector across UK and Asian countries. The study found a new perspective linking HR issues, HR policies and HR outcomes under the influence of demographics.
