"Beginning with the deal itself, The Complete Guide to Mergers and Acquisitions shows managers how to minimize the impact of a merger on personnel and realize its strategic and financial benefits faster, more efficiently, and more effectively.

It clearly explains the issues managers will face at each stage of the process and contains step-by-step instructions for creating a successful communications strategy, retaining and re-recruiting key talent, creating a clear selection and staffing plan, designing and managing the integration process, and measuring progress."--BOOK JACKET.
