Helping you build the organization
you will become.
Most mergers begin in the worst of all possible ways. There's always joy (and relief) among the principals. And typically, fear and loathing among everyone else. Usually, the acquirer feels good. The acquired organization, on the other hand, doesn't feel so good.
That's the tradition.
But the tradition is ridiculous and totally counter-productive.
Merger Leadership
rethinks traditions and resets expectations.
Follow it through:
(2) Your merger partner is smart.
They have great people. They
know things that your people don't know. Nobody else does what they do,
exactly the way
they do it. Like you,
they are special
and unique.
Believe in this.
(3) Your challenge
is to build the organization you both can become.
Short of mindless, endless feuding, there really isn't a viable alternative.
We work with you to
(i) understand what makes you great (yes, each of you), and we help
you
(ii) define the
extraordinary new organization you can become.
(1) You are smart.
You have great people. You know things that other people don't know. Nobody else does what you do, exactly the way you do it. That makes you special and unique. Believe in this.
