M&A integration failures—occurring far too often—are frequently blamed on people and culture. And for good reason. Many studies emphasize the critical role of people and culture in M&A success.
However, defining and managing the broad concept of corporate culture—encompassing values, behaviors, and practices—is challenging, especially in mergers and acquisitions where integrations are executed under tight schedules with overloaded resources. Furthermore, frustration with slow and complex integrations is often misinterpreted as cultural conflict, when in fact, better execution could resolve many issues.
An even bigger pitfall is reducing people risks to employee turnover alone. Statements like "not many people tend to leave in our integrations" or "those who are not engaged can leave if they like" overlook the vital and comprehensive role that the human factor plays in M&A integrations. If you’re not just acquiring patents, technology, or real estate, the importance of people is crucial to the success or failure of the integration.
To mitigate pervasive people risks and achieve your M&A goals, you need to build and nurture a healthy relationship with the people in the acquisition target. It’s not just about coexisting under the same roof but working together to achieve something that serves the interests, goals, and well-being of both parties. Building a strong relationship is a key approach to realizing the original business benefits of the transaction.
Watch our webinar recording to discover how this inclusive, productive, and rewarding relationship can be created and fostered—without the burden and complexity of traditional methods.
