Pre- and Post-Merger Due Diligence and Integration

How many times have you read about the perfect marriage of two companies? Analysts, bankers, and competitors all talk about how the merger of Company X and Company Y will be a boom for the market place. Whether they be shareholders, customers, or employees, the buzz in the industry is they will all prosper significantly one way or another and within 12 months.

Twelve months later the headlines read: “Why did the merger of Company X and Y fail so badly when it appeared they had everything going for them?”

And the answer is simple: the companies did not focus on the people side of the transaction.
