As part of our series on the role of culture in Mergers and Acquisitions, we are delighted to bring you renowned organizational psychologist, author and thought leader, Philip Mirvis, Ph.D. Join Bryan Adkins, President of Denison Consulting, as he hosts Dr. Mirvis in the session: “M&A Culture Clashes: Diagnosing and Dealing with Them.” In this webinar, Dr. Mirvis will discuss "culture clashes" in mergers and acquisitions: how to spot them during due diligence, how to diagnose them once a combination is underway, and how to deal with culture differences in putting companies together. Culture clashes can be a barrier to making mergers work. They can--and should--be understood and managed. Here we'll look at how culture can be assessed through measurement tools and managed through different integration strategies.
