The overlooked factors in M&A

Culture

From dress codes to office layouts to working hours, culture may seem like it’s mostly made up of the finishing details. In reality, culture is the shared behavior that shapes employee experience and determines how companies get things done.

Purpose

A company’s purpose gets to the heart of why it’s in business in the first place. Whether it’s just seeking to make a quality product or working to change the world, purpose dramatically impacts how organizations plan and operate their businesses.

Digital

An organization’s digital mindset says a lot about how it operates. What technologies and tools a company decides to invest in — and how much it’s willing to spend — has an enormous impact on its future.
