To assure successful business transitions, either major re-organization or M&A, the key questions to examine are:

How should we organize to best deliver the strategy?
Is the business structured appropriately?
What does it feel like to work here?

Are jobs designed for strategy delivery?
Have jobs been evaluated?
Is candidate emotionally mature to handle tough challenges?

Is there a "This is how we've always done it" attitude?
Are people recognized as unique individuals?
How organizations are structured?
Are there unnecessary constraints in workplace?
How performance is measured and managed?
Are there opportunities to outsource non-core activities?
