BDO USA, LLP Joins the M&A Leadership Council
Submitted by M&A Leadership Council
DALLAS – December 20, 2016 – The M&A Leadership Council today announced that BDO USA, LLP has joined the Council as a Transaction Advisory Services training partner.

During a recent client engagement, we presented the company’s executive staff with the rationale and approach for a comprehensive process of deal measurement and feedback. After our meeting, the firm’s integration manager teasingly chided us for “messing up a pretty comfortable arrangement.” “Until now,” he explained, “our executive team has had a ‘Don’t ask, don’t tell’ policy surrounding mergers. I don’t ask what the next deal is going to be, and they don’t ask me how the integration of this one is going.”
Here’s a startling thought: your customers probably have more M&A experience than you do! Think about it. Whether your business is B2B or B2C doesn’t matter. Your customers have more M&A related “been there, done that” deal-count experience with other businesses they interface with than your current leadership team could ever hope to achieve.
If you’re just now picking up this three-part mini-series on “getting the riskiest days right,” please be sure to catch on what we believe are the riskiest days in M&A and why: The Riskiest Day and Getting Announcement Day Right.
