Online Open-Line Event: Fumbling Strategic Acquisitions – The Do’s and Don’ts
Thursday, February 22, 2018. 11:00am PST Webinar. Lighthouse Consulting hosts online open-line event.
Growing through acquisition is an enticing prospect for many mid-market companies. Their leaders dream of adding millions of dollars to the top line with a single stroke of the pen. Buying companies can be an awesome growth tactic, but only when the right acquirer with the right team buys the right company at the right price. At least half the time, it isn’t all right, and then the acquisition can be a noxious growth killer.
