When the going gets tough… displaying courage in high stakes
The stakes are high in mergers and acquisitions.
Negotiating with an acquisition target, merger partner or buyer of a piece of your business is both a rational and an intensely competitive process. The inevitable tension surrounding due diligence and financial discussions is increased by the emotional factor, which most ignore and some (unwisely), deny.
Whether or not the deal is successful depends, in part, on each party ‘showing their hand’ to the other, which in itself is high risk. The pressure is on leaders to be discerning and decisive.
Poor communication, culture differences and a lack of transparency whether real or imagined, contribute to increasing the risk.

How leaders think about a deal colors everything from strategy through integration, yet leaders rarely examine their own assumptions and decision-making process. These questions help leaders recognize and use to their advantage critical elements of The Merger Mindset.
