Companies often don't realize how difficult these changes can be for their employees.

Amy Weck, Vice President, M&A Integrations at The Liberty Company Insurance Brokers, LLC, points out that employees and even the owners who remain after a sale face major adjustments.

This includes determining the extent to which each company will continue to do their own thing and the extent to which they will work together.

If you want to learn more about how to deal with the challenges of merging companies, especially the human side of it, listen to Amy Weck's insights in our full episode.
