In an era of digital transformation, disruptive innovation, transient competitive advantage, and industry convergence, mergers and acquisitions have become more complex than ever. Winning at the Acquisition Game presents the best materials, insights, tools, and templates which comprise the successful Mergers and Acquisitions course taught in the MBA and Executive MBA programs at the Said Business School, University of Oxford. Each chapter connects traditionally distinct"siloed" functional expertise and provides readers with practical knowledge and tools to help them understand the entire MandA process; from pre-deal strategy and due diligence, through transaction valuation, negotiations, and consummation, to post-deal implementation, workforce motivation, innovation for revenue growth, and results measurement and reporting. Case examples illustrate how each stage of the process has been implemented by companies across various industries, while discussion questions and self-assessments enable readers to determine their organization's current level ofMandA capability. Through an actionable, end-to-end process model this book shows both practitioners and students of MandA how to successfully mobilize and integrate organizational capability and avoid management missteps to gain a unique advantage and truly "win" at the acquisition game. | Winning at the Acquisition Game by Timothy Galpin, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
