      <image:title>Knowhow - Systematic identification of PMI risks in the due diligence process - PMI Integration Excellence (Copy)</image:title>
      <image:caption>PMI Integration Excellence Das vorliegende Buch liefert nicht nur eine Road Map für erfolgreiches Integrationsmanagement; es zeigt ferner, wie mithilfe einer risikoorientierten Merger Due Diligence verhindert wird, dass Integrationen durchgeführt werden, die von Anfang an zum Scheitern verurteilt sind. Das Buch basiert auf den Daten einer der größten PMI-Datenbanken weltweit. Damit erhalten Manager praxiserprobte Tools zur Verbesserung der unternehmerischen wie auch der persönlichen Erfolgschancen bei der Post Merger Integration. Mit Fallbeispielen u.a. von BASF, Claas, GEA, Georgsmarienhütte, K+S, Munich Re, RWE, Salzgitter Mannesmann Precision und SAP.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Knowhow - M&amp;amp;A Automation: Tax Due-Diligence  -  how digitized is it today? - PMI Integration Excellence (Copy)</image:title>
      <image:caption>PMI Integration Excellence Das vorliegende Buch liefert nicht nur eine Road Map für erfolgreiches Integrationsmanagement; es zeigt ferner, wie mithilfe einer risikoorientierten Merger Due Diligence verhindert wird, dass Integrationen durchgeführt werden, die von Anfang an zum Scheitern verurteilt sind. Das Buch basiert auf den Daten einer der größten PMI-Datenbanken weltweit. Damit erhalten Manager praxiserprobte Tools zur Verbesserung der unternehmerischen wie auch der persönlichen Erfolgschancen bei der Post Merger Integration. Mit Fallbeispielen u.a. von BASF, Claas, GEA, Georgsmarienhütte, K+S, Munich Re, RWE, Salzgitter Mannesmann Precision und SAP.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Knowhow - How machine learning can help in digitalization of M&amp;amp;A processes! - PMI Integration Excellence (Copy)</image:title>
      <image:caption>PMI Integration Excellence Das vorliegende Buch liefert nicht nur eine Road Map für erfolgreiches Integrationsmanagement; es zeigt ferner, wie mithilfe einer risikoorientierten Merger Due Diligence verhindert wird, dass Integrationen durchgeführt werden, die von Anfang an zum Scheitern verurteilt sind. Das Buch basiert auf den Daten einer der größten PMI-Datenbanken weltweit. Damit erhalten Manager praxiserprobte Tools zur Verbesserung der unternehmerischen wie auch der persönlichen Erfolgschancen bei der Post Merger Integration. Mit Fallbeispielen u.a. von BASF, Claas, GEA, Georgsmarienhütte, K+S, Munich Re, RWE, Salzgitter Mannesmann Precision und SAP.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>PMI Integration Excellence Das vorliegende Buch liefert nicht nur eine Road Map für erfolgreiches Integrationsmanagement; es zeigt ferner, wie mithilfe einer risikoorientierten Merger Due Diligence verhindert wird, dass Integrationen durchgeführt werden, die von Anfang an zum Scheitern verurteilt sind. Das Buch basiert auf den Daten einer der größten PMI-Datenbanken weltweit. Damit erhalten Manager praxiserprobte Tools zur Verbesserung der unternehmerischen wie auch der persönlichen Erfolgschancen bei der Post Merger Integration. Mit Fallbeispielen u.a. von BASF, Claas, GEA, Georgsmarienhütte, K+S, Munich Re, RWE, Salzgitter Mannesmann Precision und SAP.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Literature - PMI Integration Excellence (Copy)</image:title>
      <image:caption>PMI Integration Excellence Das vorliegende Buch liefert nicht nur eine Road Map für erfolgreiches Integrationsmanagement; es zeigt ferner, wie mithilfe einer risikoorientierten Merger Due Diligence verhindert wird, dass Integrationen durchgeführt werden, die von Anfang an zum Scheitern verurteilt sind. Das Buch basiert auf den Daten einer der größten PMI-Datenbanken weltweit. Damit erhalten Manager praxiserprobte Tools zur Verbesserung der unternehmerischen wie auch der persönlichen Erfolgschancen bei der Post Merger Integration. Mit Fallbeispielen u.a. von BASF, Claas, GEA, Georgsmarienhütte, K+S, Munich Re, RWE, Salzgitter Mannesmann Precision und SAP.</image:caption>
