Is there a way to introduce a phased approach to a merger process?
Yes, after the orientation meetings, the setting up of a merger proposal and the negotiations, the actual merger (the integration) can begin. The first 100 days of the integration are very important. In this period, it must be clear how the management and the decision-making structure will appear, who will work where, how the cultural integration will be approached, and how the clients will be handled.
