Abstract

The previous chapter has identified the key factors that make or break an integration project. Chapter 2 now introduces Bergamin and Braun’s integration model. It comprises six dimensions that require diligent planning and visionary implementation in every integration project. This chapter also provides the reader with checklists and concludes with central legal aspects of post-merger integration.
