Where should decision-making remain centralized versus delegated during integration?

[Micah Goldfus]

That very much depends on what you mean by delegated. In any large company there is a balance of letting employees close to the work have the autonomy to make decisions in their jobs while having governance and guardrails in place.

This balance creates clarity, preserves the deal rationale, and enables the new organization to operate with both discipline and agility
