Merger & Acquisition Culture Assessments

We do cultural assessments at companies before a merger or acquisition to identify potential areas of conflict and create a plan for seamless cultural integration.

our process

De-risk your merger or acquisition

Studies show up to 80% of mergers and acquisitions fail due to cultural clashes. The impact of cultural misalignment can be severe, leading to talent attrition, reduced productivity, and failure to achieve expected synergies and cost savings.

With our proven cultural assessment methodology, we dig deep into both organizations and uncover the hidden norms, unwritten rules and methods of work, putting together a plan that proactively addresses these concerns.

1. Assessment

Most consulting companies meet only 20-30% of the employee population. That means you’re missing 80% of the picture. We talk to every single employee to fully understand the culture. We also look at the policies, processes and technology, both written and unwritten.

2. Recommendation

We provide a detailed analysis, quantified by our proprietary culture metrics, across multiple domains. We tell you exactly what we observed and where the key culture risks are.

3. Implementation Roadmap

Our recommendations include immediate fixes and a multi-year plan where necessary. We tell you exactly how to solve the key risk areas and hold a half-day workshop with the CEO or the full leadership team.

4. Optional Ongoing Support

Want our help with the post-acquisition or merger culture change management? We can help project manage the integration plan and support your change teams.
