It seems to me that given the oft-quoted statistics regarding the high failure rate of acquired companies that achieve the targeted synergy savings, the synergies that triggered the acquisitions in the first place with some quotes as high as 95%, there is a need for a book on the topic that is largely aimed at medium-sized companies.

The main reasons for failure are often cited as including poor strategic fit, a failed cultural marriage, failure to identify crucial issues in the due diligence process, and failures resulting from any business integration. This book therefore is focused on this end of the M&A process. In addition, it highlights the need to ensure the current business is in optimum shape before adding a new one to the mix. Mergers and acquisitions are bloody hard work! It is unlikely that you would automate a production line before you had it working properly in a manual state. The same truth holds when grafting a new business onto an existing one.

Although the information in this book will prove of value to any company, I believe it is medium-sized businesses that likely need the most help. It is harder for them to recover from adverse financial surprises than it is for their larger sister companies, and yet often they are faced with the need to do an acquisition. They are unlikely to have a permanent M&A department or the financial resources to hire the top gun experts in the field and so they must make do with what they have. I sincerely hope the information in this book helps to fill that gap.

My brother Steven and I just had our book The Success or Die Ultimatum published by CRC Press, a publisher who is truly dedicated to supporting productivity across the globe. For me, this was my first book and for Steven his third. The Success or Die Ultimatum makes a very clear statement of how we feel about spreading our know-how and sharing what we believe works best. This follow-up book is intended to achieve those same goals with an expanded view on mergers and acquisitions.

Looking back at my life, it seems I remember almost everything; sometimes a casual statement can become a guiding principle. One guy told me that everything you ever learn in any job during your life goes into your briefcase and you carry it with you to the next job; nothing is ever lost. The years spent working on tool and die assist you when you are helping to turn around an automotive parts supplier in need; the experience you gain working as a shift manager in high-speed packaging helps when youre the COO of a plastics company. The analysis work you apply during a night-shift as a consultant in a call center makes you stronger when you are the managing director of a business process outsourcing company (BPO); truly nothing is ever lost.

My career has taken me across the globe, working as a senior executive and as a consultant and yet from the earliest days I was driven by the desire to simplify for others the learning that I gained along the way. To help achieve this in The Success or Die Ultimatum, we used a novel approach where we applied characterization to our cast of players as opposed to following a textbook approach. I have used the same style in these current writings, The Grow or Die Ultimatum: Creating Value through Acquisition and Blended Long-Term Improvement Formulas. The characters exhibit a conglomeration of traits I have encountered in real life but are not related to any specific people. The same holds true for the problems covered. In fact, more often than not the characters have been created as an amalgam of my own best and worst selves.

I hope you find it adds to your skill sets and that you enjoy reading it as much as I have enjoyed the writing of it.

I thank everyone at every level in every organization in which I have had the privilege to work. From the CEO to the frontline folks who keep their fingers on the green button and make the whole thing go every day, you are all heroes.

Id also like to thank those who have mentored me along the way; there are many and I offer my apologies for naming only a few: George Ross, Elaine Minacs, John Crncich, and Brian Delaney.

My sincere gratitude is extended to Martin LaChapelle for the excellent graphic art work he has applied in taking my sketches and turning them into the 30 fine figures that illustrate this book.

Id also like to thank Michael Sinocchi of Taylor & Francis Group for his help and support on the publication of this book and also on the publication of
