This case series examines issues of managing a large acquisition with a substantial gap in organizational culture between two companies, where the path taken is one that places an emphasis on leveraging complementarities rather than on homogenizing differences. The case is split into a comprehensive series that measures the choices made, decisions taken and the evolution over time of an acquisition managed as a partnership, in order to assess the opportunities and challenges in aligning values and procedures in a highly tense post-merger management setting.
