Abstract: | The authors suggest that organizational identity may be as influential as culture in affecting the integration process, especially in mergers of equals. They also suggest that the framing of a merger as one of 'equals' is itself likely to reinforce existing organizational identities by setting up an expectation of strict equality in all aspects of the merger. |
