About this listen

How does a fast-growing, risk tolerant company merge with a company that values consensus and careful decision making? Are you headed for a culture clash? Do your people understand and agree with the strategy? How do you choose between two CFOs? While the financials may work for a deal, reaping the benefits of a merger or acquisition is a notoriously risky undertaking when organizational development factors are not considered. Our show focuses on the capabilities and best practices required for companies to master the integration phase of M and A relating to people, culture, skills sets, organization structure and behaviors. We interview top executives across a variety of industries to explore success stories, best practices and lessons learned from traversing the risky but often rewarding world of M and A. Whether you are on the buy or sell side of a transaction, whether the capital or the executive, you will benefit from the insights and keys to success discussed.Sonya Weigle Economics Personal Finance
