Abstract
Mergers and acquisitions represent the ultimate in change for a business. No other event is more difficult, challenging as a merger and acquisition. It is imperative that everyone involved in the process has a clear un- derstanding of how the process works. Hopefully this short course will provide you with a better appreciation of what is involved. You might be asking yourself, why do I need to learn the merger and acquisition (M & A) process? Well for starters, mergers and acquisi- tions are now a normal way of life within the business world. In today's global, competitive environment, mergers are sometimes the only means for long-term survival. In other cases, such as Cisco Systems, mergers are a strategic component for generating long-term growth. Additionally, many entrepreneurs no longer build companies for the long-term; they build companies for the short-term, hop- ing to sell the company for huge profits.
