Why Focus on Culture?
By some estimates, 85 percent of failed acquisitions are attributable to mismanagement of cultural issues - Dun and Bradstreet
The list of recent megamergers dogged by cultural incompatibility … includes the marriages of pharmaceutical giants Pharmacia and Upjohn; automakers Daimler-Benz and Chrysler; and financial powerhouses Citicorp and Travelers Group. Add to that the acquisition of Capital Cities/ABC by Walt Disney Co.– Accenture
To increase the odds of success in their new roles, onboarding executives need to recognize that each company has its own distinct "immune system" comprising the organization's culture and political networks – Harvard Business Review
