Post-merger Leadership Integration Consulting:
Creating Better Relationships, Driving Faster Results

Financial or operating issues are not the only reason for under performing mergers. Mergers magnify weak executive linkages that can quickly spell trouble during these periods of high change. Uncertainty takes hold, relationships are never fully developed, and the leadership team is never really integrated. As a result, the anticipated value of the merger is never fully realized.

Using your live merger issues, we show your senior executives how to change their thinking to be more productive and purposeful in the midst of the stress and uncertainty associated with any merger or acquisition. The result: Change happens faster, teams work in more meaningful ways and the merger begins to achieve the results intended.

Leadership Team Consulting for Under-Performing Divisions

In any national or international corporation, there are often one or two divisions that consistently under-perform. There are countless resources and turnaround consultants that deal with solving financial and operating issues—but little effort is given to the human side of helping senior executives understand how their own leadership behavior may be contributing to the performance shortfall.

Starting at the Divisional Executive level, O’Brien Group will identify the health of the leadership relationships by examining how decisions are made and carried out and how change is being managed. O’Brien Group principals will attend meetings with superiors and subordinates to coach the divisional President on how to better handle breakdowns and upsets, how to have more powerful leadership conversations and how to create a higher performing team.

Centralization vs. Decentralization:
Turning Breakdowns into Breakthroughs

National or international corporations—by their very nature—have issues and problems that regionally focused companies don’t have. Decision making is more complex and the resulting outcomes often don’t take full advantage of the inherent strengths of the corporate office OR the local operations. Breakdowns are frequent as both sides tend to dig in on important, company-shaping issues.

Working one-on-one with the CEO and concurrently holding a series of sessions and workshops with the executive and operating teams, O’Brien Group will apply a set of practices, meeting structures and ways of thinking that will better deal with the normal control issues that create confusion, upsets, disappointments, anger and lots of rework. The result: Decisions will be made with more speed and innovation while the outcomes will build upon the inherent advantages of the corporate structure. Breakdowns are turned into breakthroughs.
