The Leadership Factor in Market Valuation and M&A Success

January 9, 2018

Whether you are looking to sell your firm or grow through a merger or acquisition, leadership capability is a critical factor for success. Decisions on market valuation is driven by perceptions of the effectiveness or ineffectiveness of a firm’s leadership team. And while M&As continue to be a major strategy in support of corporate growth, research and experience indicate that up to 70% of deals fail to meet stated objectives, and of those, 50% will destroy shareholder value.

Topics to be discussed:

  • How to understand and leverage your individual and collective leadership strengths to enhance your firm’s market valuation position.
  • How effective and ineffective leadership affect M&As.
  • Real-world case studies on how middle market companies have leveraged the leadership factor in M&As.
