Acquisition performance: The effect of the extent and speed of integration, and the contribution of the acquired units' top management

Other findings showed that a higher proportion of acquired units top managers were retained, and they were for longer periods in units with high preacquisition performance than in units with low preacquisition performance. It was also found that retained top managers in units with high preacquisition performance were perceived to have greater knowledge, relationships, leadership ability and managerial ability than those in units with low preacquisition performance. In units with high preacquisition performance the retained top managers' relationships, leadership ability and managerial ability were perceived to make greater contribution to the units' performance than in units with low preacquisition performance.
