The Implementation Environment

Stan Lees

Chapter Chapter 13 in Global Acquisitions, 2003, pp 169-184 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Winning over acquired employees in the early weeks is necessary, but not sufficient. Commitment and morale have to be sustained during the many months (and sometimes years) it can take to bring two companies together. This in turn hinges on how acquirers handle the implementation — how they manage acquired staff and how they manage what, in horizontal mergers, can be a long and tortuous process of organisational change.
