Merging Corporate Cultures
Number of pages:
12
ABSTRACT:
A 12 page paper discussing the difficulties
inherent in merging the cultures of companies joining forces. Whether the companies are
equals in terms of value should mean less than it usually does. The paper provides
examples of both failed and successful mergers, and the common factor in each can be
traced to the manner in which workforces were joined. Attitudes of superiority of one
over the other dooms the culture merge. Some companies have used their mergers as
opportunities to create a more open and trusting culture than existed before. Bibliography
lists 18 sources.
