How many of us have seen mergers or acquisitions that, despite their initial promise, fail to achieve their goals? The integration of two organizations often falls short, but why is this so challenging? In my experience, to integrate businesses successfully, you need to understand three key aspects. First, you must have a deep grasp of the financial mechanics of each business. Second, you need robust and efficient operational capabilities to drive results. The third aspect is often underestimated: a true understanding of how your stakeholders—employees, vendors, and customers—perceive and interact with your business. Gaining genuine insight into this third aspect is crucial for a seamless integration.

Why Do Leaders Focus Too Much on Short-Term Goals? Focusing excessively on short-term goals can be detrimental, leading to missed opportunities for innovation, neglect of long-term strategic planning, and potential burnout of teams constantly working under high pressure. In our latest Asia Leadership Research, we uncover that 73% of leaders think it's because of the pressure to provide a return to investors/shareholders. Our new video discusses several key factors driving this trend, including market pressure, disruptive environments, and time management challenges. A big thank you to our guest speakers for their invaluable insights: ➡️ Mui Hoon POH, FSID FSCS, Independent Director at Singapore Eye Research Institute & Board Mentor at Criticaleye ➡️ Reshmi Khurana Laroia, Partner & Managing Director at AlixPartners ➡️ Daniel Cotton, Divisional Chief Strategy Officer at Omnicom Watch the video to gain expert insights:https://buff.ly/3Yh4c3o To read our full Asia Leadership Research, click here: https://buff.ly/3Ln6yWr #Leadership #StrategicPlanning #BusinessStrategy
