Title
Mergers and Acquisitions: A Unified Human Resources Model
Abstract
The incidence of mergers and acquisitions (M&As) has proliferated throughout the world including all sectors of society, both municipal and industrial, private and public. However, the author points out that the majority (60 to 80 percent) of mergers do not reach their intended objectives due to the fact that the merging organizations do not realize the impact of neglecting the human resource factor. The author undertakes a case study of a merger, examining Montreal's McGill University Health Center (MUHC) which in 1997 saw the merger of the Royal Victoria Hospital, the Montreal General Hospital, the Montreal Neurological Institute, and the Montreal Children's Hospital.
