Fusioner och förvärv har varit ett populärt sätt för företag att växa sedan ett par decennier tillbaka. Sammanslagningar är ett potentiellt effektivt sätt för organisationer att öka marknadsandelar, skapa stordriftsfördelar, få tillgång till ny teknik eller öka intäkter. Samtidigt innebär de ofta omfattande organisatoriska förändringar, vilket enligt statistiken leder till att fler än varannan fusion eller förvärv slutar med att företagen skiljs åt. Omorganisationer kan skapa oro och konflikter, vilket i sin tur leder till lägre employee commitment bland de anställda. Employee commitment är den attityd som existerar hos den anställde när dennes identitet är i linje med själva organisationen eller när organisationens mål blir integrerade med individens personliga mål.Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur tre valda företag arbetat för att förbättra employee commitment i samband med en fusion eller ett förvärv.
