Description

Just as with leaving the new acquisition alone post-close, integrating fully into your own business is also a common approach. Doing so is often seen as the easiest, best and possibly only way to achieve your acquisition goals: full integration equals full benefits, correct? If only it were that simple; in fact, in many cases a full integration is the best way to destroy value, especially in small acquisitions where as the saying goes, ‘the gorilla smothers the kitten’.  In this, the fifth in our Back to Basics podcast series, Louise Cooper and Lance Raley join Carlos Keener to provide BTD’s thoughts and experience on other options to consider, and practical steps to help business leaders make the right choices before implementation.
