This book challenges almost every popular assumption about how to manage mergers and acquisitions. It draws upon a wealth of theory and practice to provide the essential strategic frameworks for integrating mergers, acquisitions, and other collaborative ventures at a global level. It shows that the human factor is at the center of a successful acquisition strategy.

Industry Reviews

'...a very confident, quietly authoritative book...Theory, application and practical value intertwine into a consistent whole...which tells me: this guy knows his stuff. He has been there. He knows what is involved...and what questions should be asked. Anyone involved with post acquisition integration will gain hugely from reading this book.' - John W. Hunt, Emeritus Professor of Organisational Behaviour, London Business School
