In a paradoxical manner, M\u0026amp;A research on speed of integration is still in its infancy and remains underdeveloped. Empirical findings reach from positive over negative to non-significant relationships between speed and M\u0026amp;A success. Carolin Proft develops a research model which encompasses task integration speed and human integration speed as independent variables influencing the dependent variable of M\u0026amp;A performance. She clarifies the question of how the success factor speed can be used as a tool to enhance M\u0026amp;A success. Based on the data collected from 101 German speaking companies she proves that task integration speed negatively influences M\u0026amp;A performance while human integration speed promotes M\u0026amp;A success. The present study is unique as it quantitatively demonstrates that the two types of integration occur at different levels of speed. Therefore, the M\u0026amp;A success significantly depends on the chronology of the two types of integration.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer Gabler\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2013-12-16\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783658045630\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-658-04564-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 107\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47675015200908,"sku":"9783658045630","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783658045630.jpg?v=1776539624","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783658045630","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
