Great topic, Srrah. I used to think that it just didn’t make sense for companies with different cultures to merge. Slowly, I’m realizing that even companies with similar cultures will face post merger challenges, and both need comprehensive integration plans that include change management from Day 1. Employees will want to know why they’re merging and what that means for them. A stronger focus on clearly articulating “what’s in it for them” might go a long way for any merger is my guess.
