the authors identify six theories (anxiety theory, social identity theory,
acculturation theory, role conflict theory, job characteristics theory, and organizational
justice theory) to explain problems in managing the merger and acquisition (M&A) organizational
change process. These theories have implicitly or explicitly formed the basis
for the past M&A literature. The authors integrate these theories into one conceptual
framework that clearly delineates unique sources of problems that can emerge in different
stages of M&A integration, their psychological and behavioral effects on employees,
and prescriptions to address the problems. The framework can be used as a guide for
M&Aintegration leaders to systematically plan interventions to smooth the human integration
process. It also provides a foundation for future theoretical and empirical M&A
integration research.
