IoT Mergers and Acquistion
IoT is no longer just a trendy buzz word but, a real technology trend with plenty of room to grow, and M&A activity will grow with it.
The University of Pennsylvania and Harvard cite that Merger & Acquisition activity has reached historically high levels of failure, with rates as high as 90 percent. And the #1 reason for failure is “Culture.”
Culture failure equals leadership failure.
To guarantee Merger & Acquisition success, your human capital strategy must be a critical business priority. Delay of cultural due diligence until after the transaction closes may undermine the very purpose of the deal.
Gallup Research found that during the last 18 years, an average of only 30% of employees have been actively engaged at work. Culture Due Diligence is becoming a best practice for companies as they evaluate the effectiveness of their human capital model and workforce organizational structure, and whether the processes currently used are likely to keep employees engaged and attract top talent.
Companies are now using benchmarking tools to evaluate cultural competitiveness. Substantial changes to culture are often required prior to deal initiation if a company intends to achieve strategic objectives and deliver the promised value of M&A deals.
M&A deals have a bias for speed, and often there’s a temptation to cut corners when evaluating the culture and workforce. Every deal has its unique challenges, and gaining insight about behaviors, personalities, values and motivations of stakeholders creates a distinct advantage for companies preparing for post-deal success.
