INTEGRATION

M&A: Easy On Paper... Much Harder In Real Life

Two companies. Two cultures. Two ways of working. Now they need to behave and move like one.

That’s where /shift comes in. We help you integrate leadership, teams, and operations fast - without losing momentum, customers, or talent. Because the success of your deal depends not just on what you bought... but how well you bring it together.

Why Integration Fails — And How We Help You Win

Integration often struggles because:

Leadership teams aren't aligned early
Roles, goals, and ways-of-working stay vague too long
Cultures clash or, worse, drift into silence
"Organizational noise" sucks everyone's energy and focus, instead of delivery

At /shift, we help to fix that early and fast.

We work inside the new leadership team, installing the mindset, rhythms, and practical actions needed to make the two businesses operate as one.

What We Deliver

✅ Leadership Team Integration: Align leaders from both sides on clear priorities, accountabilities, and operating cadences
✅ Culture and Ways-of-Working Reset: Define what the new company looks like—and feels like—to work in
✅ Execution and Delivery: Make sure critical customer, operational, and growth priorities don’t stall during the transition
✅ Team Engagement: Rebuild trust, clarity, and motivation inside newly combined teams
✅ Speed-to-Impact: Shorten the painful “merging period” and get back to real momentum, fast

Our Integration Approach

Align the New Leadership Team — fast
Clarify Priorities, Roles, and Critical Deliverables
Establish a New Operating Rhythm
Diagnose Culture Risks—and Build Cultural Bridges
Drive Visible Wins Early — to prove the new model works
Sustain the Momentum — not just Day 1 energy, but Year 1 results

Integration is where you PROVE value, or LOSE value. So we don’t just advise - we work alongside your teams to make it real. Our role is to ensure that, rather than just combining companies...
