Post Merger Integration

Essentials Traits for Successful M & A

Essentials Traits for Successful M & A

Some refer to “incompatible business models” undermining a deal, but what does that really mean? It suggests that when companies make money in vastly different ways, doing extremely different things, and no one recognizes it, joining them usually proves challenging, costly, and ill advised. If you don’t understand how the other company makes money, it is impossible to assess the pragmatics of their growth plans.

Research indicates poor post-merger integration explains many failures. We can help you position your company for a successful M & A deal:

  • Create an overall M & A integration approach that preserves and leverages the unique attributes and capabilities of both the parent and target companies
  • Avoid costly talent mistakes and position the integrated company to be a talent magnet
  • Prevent culture clashes and create a new high-performing, combined culture

At Henman Performance Group, we work with your executive leadership team to decide the overall integration strategy—to make the key decisions that capture the anticipated deal value. With our proven track record of success, we can help you mitigate the many risks that can undermine a deal’s anticipated synergies.

To determine how well you’re doing in the integration process, complete the “Integration Assessment” on this site.
