Acquisition

Many acquisitions fail yet acquirers continue to make the same mistakes: poor planning, lack of communication and mishandled implementation. In this fully revised and updated edition, including a new chapter on new technology and e-commerce acquisitions, Nancy Hubbard guides the reader through a six stage planning process as well as exploring the history of acquisitions, their trends globally, and reasons for success and failure. This is a guide to the process and pitfalls of acquisition strategy and implementation.
