Abstract

What makes the Advances in Mergers and Acquisitions series stand out is its focus on all three characteristics that make up this research field - studies from scholars in different countries, with different research questions, relying on different theoretical perspectives. Such a broad, and inclusive, approach to mergers and acquisitions is not easily replicated in academic journals, with much narrower mandates and metrics. The collections published each year provide cutting edge ideas by leading scholars on a global scale. Doing so not only broadens the questions being studied, but also helps researchers consider the inter-relationships among different perspectives. In the final analysis, the best way to build understanding around a topic as diffuse as mergers and acquisitions is to be both integrative, and expansive, in choice of research questions and theoretical underpinnings. Advances in Mergers and Acquisitions offers this unique perspective, not easily found elsewhere, that will help scholars think about mergers and acquisitions in new ways, building our knowledge base on this critical topic.

Abstract

Bettina Hauser develops a research model, which encompasses entrepreneurial leadership as a major success factor during post-merger integration. Additionally, contextual variables, namely cultural distance and the organizational variable, relative size, are tested for their moderating effect on the influence of entrepreneurial leadership on M&A performance. The author clarifies the question of how entrepreneurial leadership can help to enhance M&A performance. Based on 114 transactions with acquirers of German-speaking companies, she proves that entrepreneurial leadership has a positive effect on post-acquisition performance and helps to overcome problems related to cultural differences.  Contents Mergers & Acquisitions – State of the Art: M&A Basic Concepts, Cross-Border M&A, National vs. Organizational Culture, Post-Merger Integration, Problem Statement Research Model and Hypothesis Development Methodology: Measurement Development, Sample and Data, Results Discussion: Managerial and Theoretical Implications, Limitations and Future Research  Target Groups Researchers and students in the fields of International and Strategic Management as well as Business Development M&A Managers, CEOs and Human Resource Managers  The Author Bettina Hauser obtained her Master of Arts degree at Management Center Innsbruck (International Business and Law), Austria.
