Mergers are like marriages between strangers.<\/p>\n
The strategic logic is sound. The synergies have been calculated. The presentation is convincing.<\/p>\n
So you say \u201eI do\u201c.
\nBut you've never worked together on day-to-day operations.<\/p>\n
\u26a1 And then it becomes apparent:
\nStructures clash. Cultures collide. Integration takes more energy than planned.<\/p>\n
Our experience:
\n\u2757 Many mergers would have been better off starting as strategic partnerships, or even remaining as such.<\/p>\n
In this PMIspective, our panel of M&A experts will discuss the following:
\n\u2747\ufe0f When an alliance makes more sense than a merger
\n\u2747\ufe0f How cooperation serves as a reality check before committing
\n\u2747\ufe0f What questions need to be clarified before saying \u201cI do\u201d
\nPractical advice. Experience-based. Without merger romanticism.<\/p>\n
