It delves into the key aspects of effective executive leadership, particularly focusing on how to foster employee OC during an M&A event. Jackson emphasizes the importance of nurturing a company culture that maximizes employee OC after an M&A event. You will also learn about effective communication, building strong foundations for professional relationships, maneuvering strategic changes, changing management frameworks, and much more.
For any business leader or executive responsible for overseeing mergers and acquisitions, Being Acquired is a must-read. In this book, Daniel P. Jackson provides a practical framework for readers, following which the changes in organizational structure and culture can be effortlessly navigated without alienating employees. Jackson does such a wonderful job of explaining each topic that even someone like me, with no background in the corporate world, can easily grasp the concepts and follow their applications. It makes the book accessible to a wide range of readers regardless of their backgrounds. At its core, it's a comprehensive guide for business leaders who face expansion and scaling challenges within their organizations. One of the other highlights of the book is that it is concise and to the point. Highly recommended.
