Episode description

With Toby on vacation in Europe, I've had the opportunity to bring in a guest to the podcast, and I'm delighted that fellow M&A professional Anirvan Sen has joined me to talk about his experiences managing cultural change in M&A environments.

In today's podcast, we unpack our thoughts that culture is a leadership responsibility and that it is the culmination of many different aspects that make up corporate culture. Everything from rewards and recognition, communication style (internal and external) your approach to innovation, and lots more.  So much so that Anirvan and his team have developed a diagnostic and operational model with the well-chosen acronym P-R-O-M-I-S-E. Listen to today's episode and you will understand more about PROMISE and the many facets of managing culture during M&A transactions and subsequent integration.
