Welcome, everyone, to the new “M&A Monthly”, our newsletter to the M&A community. This information piece is an expansion beyond the former Alumni Newsletter. It is our goal to provide timely information, insights and new practices as the Council discovers better ways to address the challenges in M&A.
In this issue, one of the features is the newest book in the Art of M&A series. Two of our board luminaries are authors Ken Smith, Managing Partner, Dundee Associates Limited and Alexandra Reed LaJoux, Chief Knowledge Officer, National Association of Corporate Directors (NACD).They co-authored a book I highly recommend: The Art of M&A Strategy: A Guide To Building Your Company's Future Through Mergers, Acquisitions, and Divestitures. Ken and Alex recently presented key points from this book at the Mergers & Acquisitions Experts Speakers Series. I invite you to take a look,
