BIRLEŞME VE SATIN ALMALARDA ÖRGÜTSEL UYUM MEKANIZMALARINI ANLAMAK: BANKACILIK SEKTÖRÜNDEN BIR VAKA ARAŞTIRMASI

Abstract

Amaç- Birleşme ve satın almalar örgütsel değişimi de beraberinde getirmektedir. Başarılı olabilmek için, bu değişime uyum sağlanması çok önemlidir. Değişime uyum sağlanması için örgütlerin yapılarını, süreçlerini ve insan kaynaklarını da bu yönde uyumlu hale getirmeleri gerekmektedir. Bu araştırmada, Türkiye bağlamında gerçekleşen bir sınır ötesi satın alma işlemi sonrasındaki uyum mekanizmalarının açıklanması amaçlanmaktadır. Yöntem- Bu çalışma açıklayıcı araştırma tasarımına dayanmaktadır. Satın alınan kuruluş bünyesinde gerçekleştirilen araştırmada, birincil veriler (kuruluşun yöneticileri ile gerçekleştirilen mülakatlar ve gözlemler) ve ikincil veriler (satın alınan kuruluşun bildiri ve duyuruları, sunumları, organizasyon yapısında zaman içerisinde gerçekleşen değişimler ve diğer kuruluş içi kaynaklar) toplanarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular- Satın almanın ardından her iki şirketin yapısını, süreçlerini ve insan kaynaklarını uyumlu hale getirmek için çeşitli uyum mekanizmaları uygulanmıştır. Örgüt bünyesinde bazı alanlarda derinlemesine uyum gerçekleşirken, bazı alanlar daha az değişmiş veya değişmeden kalmıştır. Ayrıca, örgütsel uyumu hedefleyen mekanizmaların uygulanış biçiminin birleşme sonrası bütünleşme yazınında değinilen şeklinden farklılaşabileceği gözlemlenmiştir. Sonuç- Araştırma sonuçları, satın alım sonrası değişime uyum sağlanması sürecinde yalnızca “görev bütünleşmesi” mekanizmalarının yeterli olmadığı, “insan” ve “kültür” faktörlerinin de satın alım sonrası bütünleşmenin başarısı üzerinde en az ilki kadar önemli olduğunu göstermektedir. İncelenen vakada, satın alınan kuruluş bünyesinde her iki bütünleşme stratejisi altında çeşitli uygulamaların birlikte gerçekleştirildiği, ayrıca yazında değinilmeyen bazı uygulamaların da her iki ana kavram altında pratikte uygulandığı görülmektedir.

UNDERSTANDING ORGANIZATIONAL ADAPTATION MECHANISMS IN MERGER AND ACQUISITIONS: A CASE STUDY FROM THE BANKING SECTOR

Abstract

Purpose- Merger and Acquisitions bring together organizational change. Adapting to this change is essential to be successful. Organizations need to harmonize their structures, processes and human resources in order to successfully adapt to this change. The current study aims to explore the post-integration mechanisms carried out after a multinational acquisition in Turkish context. Methodology- This study is based on descriptive research design. Primary data were collected through interviews and observations made with the managers of the acquired organization. In addition, secondary data were collected by examining the notices and announcements, corporate presentations, changes in organizational structure over time and other internal resources of the acquired company. Findings- Following the acquisition, various integration mechanisms are applied to align the structure, processes and human resources of both companies. In some aspects it was found in-depth integration and alignment, whereas some areas remain less changed or even unchanged. Also, it was observed that the application of mechanisms aimed for organizational alignment may differ from the already mentioned methods in the Post-Merger Integration literature. Conclusion- Research results show that task integration mechanisms by themselves are not sufficient in the process of adaptation to postacquisition integration. Human and culture factors are at least as important as the first one on post-acquisition integration success. In the case examined, it is seen that various mechanisms were applied under both integration strategies within the acquired organization, and some additional mechanisms not mentioned directly in the literature.
