Description and Table of Contents

Description

Sebastian Burchhardt develops a game theory model that analyzes the possible behavioral patterns of employees during M&A processes and the impact of such patterns on the success of the transaction itself. The result is the development of a principal-multi-agent model that allows for endogenous contest entry driven by identity. In addition, the model proposes guidance for practical M&A management.

Table of Contents

Identity and Competition in an Organizational Context.- The Social Identity Approach in Corporate Mergers and Acquisitions.- Identity-Driven Contest with Endogenous Entry.- Identity-Driven Group Contest with Endogenous Entry.- Implications of the Basic Model.- Implications of the Extended Model for M&A.
