MERGERS & ACQUISITIONS
How to get off on the right foot.
(1) Create a clear story that can be cascaded throughout the organization.
(2) Enlist a group of hand-picked sponsors who reinforce, amplify, and surface potential risks.
(3) Develop a realistic plan and stand up a process to hold each other accountable to the plan.
Change is hard. We think it gets easier when you think about it in 3 steps - 1) The Story, 2) The Sponsors, and 3) The Plan

Clear Story
Getting the leadership team on the same page and sharing the same story is a huge first steps. We can help you bring everyone together to craft one coherent narrative that everything else can hang off of.
Hand-Picked Sponsors
After you align on the story, it’s time to cascade the message. We can help you enlist a key group of leaders as “sponsors” in the change effort to amplify and support the case for change.
A Realistic Plan
Ultimately, a plan needs to be written down and carried out. We can help you craft the plan and help stand up a process to get the plan completed. Read on for more information about Full IMO Support.
Integration Management Office - “The IMO”
For the most complex M&A deals, the ParkerGale Ops Team can support a full IMO (Integration Management Office) process, that pulls from the framework above, but provides an additional layer of accountability and support to help you manage through your most ambitious integrations.
