This book focuses on the importance of organizational and human factors in the long-term success of mergers. While the failure of many of the 1980's mergers points to the need to implement the merger of two organizations as cultural entities, much of the focus has been on pre-merger financial planning. This volume explores the roles of organizational culture, strategy, leadership, and structure in combining two organizations. Special attention is paid to the need for the two merger partners to negotiate the process of implementation rather than to have similar cultures.

In recent years, there has been an explosion of books on the nature of organisational change and the management skills needed to effectively carry it out. Many are written by change gurus and management consultants offering quick fixes and metaphor laden business toolkits, however, much of their advice is banal and under-theorized. This book redresses this balance by providing an original analysis of change management in organizations in the light of wider sociological perspectives. It critically examines the, often implicit, theoretical frameworks underpinning many contemporary accounts of organizational change, and covers subjects including:* the importance of explicit analysis of theory and context* a critique of populist management gurus and quick-fix 'how-to' solutions* 'under-socialized' models of change which emphasise structure over human action* trenchant analysis of 'soft' HRM solutions* the management of culture.Radical and innovative, this book, the first to adopt a sociological approach, is a much-needed challenge to the orthodoxies of change management.
