Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are a key element of corporate growth. In 2006, the global M&A market was valued at almost $4 trillion USD.

Challenging economic times represent an opportunity to use mergers & acquisitions to build up your competitive position. Tough times reduce the competition for target companies and also lead to better prices for acquisitions.

Indian companies are increasingly engaging in M&A locally and abroad. However, the historical record of M&A success in general is very poor, with many more mergers failing than succeeding.

This interactive program helps senior executives develop a framework and implementation plan for managing acquisitions. It offers a contemporary perspective on managing the acquisition process. HR and non-HR executives will find this opportunity to use the most contemporary thinking in M&A useful.
