About this audiobook

The new M&A bible



The Synergy Solution will change how companies think about and approach their M&A strategies and realize the performance promises they make to their shareholders. Beginning with a clear and well-accepted foundation of the economics of the M&A performance problem, Deloitte's Mark Sirower and Jeff Weirens show acquirers how to develop and execute an M&A strategy—end-to-end—that both avoids the pitfalls that so many companies fall into and creates real, long-term shareholder value. This includes: how to develop an M&A strategy and a pipeline of deals; how to test the investment thesis of a deal; how to decide what premium to pay; how to plan for a successful Announcement Day; how to properly communicate performance promises to stakeholders and shareholders; how to realize those promised synergies through integration planning and post-close execution; how to build a new combined organization; how to anticipate the questions of an informed board; and how to sustain long-term shareholder value.



There is an art and science to getting mergers and acquisitions right, and this powerful resource provides the insights and strategies acquirers need to find success at every stage of the often complex and perilous process.
