• Merge Ahead: A Research Agenda to Increase Merger and Acquisition Success (2011, background): “In response to these combination challenges, scholars have identified a range of interventions to counter adverse emotional reactions at the individual level (cf., Seo and Hill 2005 ), improve integration planning effectiveness at the group level (e.g., Bradley 2003), and ease the clash of cultures”
• Dynamics of Acquired Firm Pre-Acquisition Employee Reactions (2012, background): “…a change as major as a merger or an acquisition (Buono & Bowditch, 1989; Cartwright & Cooper, 1992; Risberg, 2001), our knowledge remains rather scant when it comes to identifying the causes predicting the swaying of employee reactions during M&A (Bourantas & Nicandrou, 1997; Seo & Hill, 2005).”
• The Impact of Change Process and Context on Change Reactions and Turnover During a Merger (2010, background): “Although a number of studies have examined mergers (e.g., Fugate et al., 2002), Seo and Hill (2005) characterized research in the area as fragmented and fairly limited.”
