As changes occur in product markets, public policy, and technology, the scope and scale required for companies to be competitive often changes as well. This course examines the role of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in repositioning companies to remain competitive, to grow, or to exit. The course also examines how M&A can create value across a range of company types and situations. A means of assessment of M&A success or failure is provided and the course outlines the processes and skills required for successful M&A strategies, relevant to executives and supporting professional services in most industries today.
