Publisher's summary

Ease the M&A process with a more effective integration plan

The Complete Guide to Mergers and Acquisitions is the ultimate handbook for planning and managing post-merger integration. Packed full of "how to" guidance, tools, templates, and resources that have been put to the test on numerous due diligence and integration efforts around the world, The Complete Guide to Mergers and Acquisitions has been the go-to guide for firms seeking to maximize the value of their deals since the release of the first edition in 1999.

Poor integration management virtually ensures that a merger or acquisition will fail to meet financial and strategic goals. The Complete Guide to Mergers and Acquisitions provides the information that enables firms to quickly and prudently capture projected cost and revenue synergies, and to move the combined organization forward. The book addresses strategic deal considerations, due diligence, integration management, people dynamics and cultural integration, common integration mistakes, communications strategies, and provides actionable steps toward creating measurable, positive results throughout the integration process. The updated third edition contains new information and tools to help firms in any industry manage deals of all sizes, including:

  • Results of The State of M&A Integration Effectiveness Survey, 2014
  • A new chapter on the M&A process deal stages, with an expanded Deal Flow Model
  • Findings of substantial M&A research from various studies in multiple industries and organizations, supporting the concepts presented throughout the book
  • New and revised tools and templates for due diligence, integration, and results measurement and reporting
  • New case examples of recent transactions
  • Highlighted 'Key Principles' throughout each chapter
  • A summary of key points at the end of each chapter
  • Discussion questions addressing the key themes of each chapter
  • A 'rapid assessment' diagnostic regarding the key elements of each chapter, which can be completed for any organization
  • A revised chapter on taking your M&A game to the next level - essential requirements for building M&A capabilities into a consistently successful enterprise competency

Merger and acquisition activity across the globe continues to grow, and is also playing a major role in the development of expanding markets. A well-managed integration effort is essential to success, and failure means a tremendous waste in terms of time and money, as well as the rapid destruction of shareholder value. The Complete Guide to Mergers and Acquisitions: Process Tools to Support M&A Integration at Every Level, Third Edition is an invaluable resource to guide firms in managing M&A integration and maximize the value of their deals.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
