The landscape of modern business abounds with mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, and internal restructuring as companies struggle to differentiate themselves and maintain pace with global changes. Corporate culture can be a key barrier to successful transitions yet has a strong impact on results. This book contains thought leadership from IBM Research to help organizations perceive culture differently - as tangible and transformable. It relates recent discoveries made while addressing the cultural changes necessary to integrate IBM's purchase of Price Waterhouse Coopers Consulting (PWCC) into an existing IBM business unit of like size. Readers gain cutting-edge insights revealed by IBM through its patent filing called Business Practices Alignment Methods. This technique provides an actionable way to address cultural change through evaluating business practices and operations.
