The workshop with Jessica on Mallorca was a game changer. In a very short space of time, she made it clear where our communication is stuck - and how we can improve it. The result: more clarity, faster decisions, real team energy. A clear recommendation for anyone who really wants to work on collaboration.

    challenges

    Two companies, one future - but integration is faltering?

    Do you find that everyday life suddenly becomes tough after a merger or takeover?
    Unclear responsibilities, cultural differences and parallel systems can quickly lead to efficiency and motivation suffering. Our post-merger support helps you to overcome these hurdles: We create clear structures, promote communication and combine cultures to create a common strength. In this way, two organizations become one efficient, motivated team that truly lives the vision.

    We master these challenges with you

    01.
    Lack of clarity in roles and responsibilities
    After the merger, it is often unclear who decides, who leads and who is responsible for which issues. This leads to frictional losses and uncertainty.
    02.
    Cultural differences between teams
    Different working methods, values and communication styles can lead to conflict and mistrust. Without targeted cultural work, there is no real sense of unity.
    03.
    Parallel systems and processes
    Two organizations often mean duplicate tools, data flows and decision-making paths. This slows down efficiency and makes collaboration unnecessarily complicated.
    04.
    Excessive demands on managers and teams
    The new structure brings new challenges - many managers and employees feel left alone and need orientation, clarity and trust.

    Don't wait until it's too late!

    After a merger or takeover, every week counts.
    Unclear structures, dual responsibilities and cultural tensions grow over time - until they block projects, slow down performance and frustrate good employees. If you act now, you can give direction, create trust and focus the energy of everyone involved.
    The earlier you actively manage integration, the stronger your company will grow together.

    Post-merger integration support

    Your team:
    One unit.

    Common direction. Clear structures. Strong culture.

    In the post-merger phase, you decide whether your company grows together - or gets lost in complexity.
    With our support, you create orientation, build trust and develop a clear management and communication structure.
    We work with you and your team on three key levels:

    ‍Strategy& structure: defining roles, responsibilities and decision-making paths
    ‍Culture& communication: creating trust and strengthening collaboration
    ‍Leadership& implementation: empowering managers to actively shape integration

    This is how two organizations become a joint, powerful unit that works towards common goals.

    How we accompany you

    Your situation: Two companies have been merged - now it's time to unite structures, build trust and connect teams. We support you with a clear process that combines analysis, structure and cultural work.
