Abstract: Facilitating the postmerger integration process between organizations requires that they combine opposite institutional logics through the creation of a new authority, identity, and legitimacy. We underline that the implementation of strategic change during the merger process was fostered by the ability of the actors to combine institutional logics through three concrete practices: redefining the authority, identity, and legitimacy of the new organization. Managerial recommendations from the institutional logics perspective are provided to facilitate the postmerger integration process.
