Session 1 – Leadership, Alignment, and the Synergies that Elude
Alignment is a key element of any post-acquisition integration strategy
and yet most organizations pay short shrift to this critical phase of
the integration process. Most leaders stop at the point where they
announce the acquisition and the great potential to realize synergies.
How do you put the acquisition strategy into action? How do you realize
the synergies? How can leaders use alignment as a tool to develop a
plan for integration?
Session 2 – Planning and Executing
What are the challenges inherent in executing an integration plan and
the business strategy simultaneously? What are the various elements,
steps and management issues such as cross-cultural management, vision
and strategy, organizational structure, governance, leadership, and
operational processes that need to be considered when designing and
executing a post-acquisition plan?
Session 3 – Capturing Potential Value the Cisco Way
What are the best practices that underlie the Cisco approach to
integration? How has this approach repeatedly delivered value to Cisco?
How should an acquiring firm think about issues of strategy, system,s
and processes, as well as people and retention issues following
completion of an acquisition.
Session 4 – Overcoming Obstacles to Integration
What obstacles can you identify that impede your attempts at
integration? What actions can you take to mitigate these barriers to
integration? What organizational capabilities and understanding must be
developed in order to realize these actions? What tools can you use to
begin to build organizational capabilities and understanding?
