Providing practical application of best practices employed in the divestiture process, Corporate Divestitures provides you with detailed guidance on how your corporation should handle a divestiture. It provides a structured approach that emphasizes disciplined execution and illustrative documents and application aids that can be adapted for use in real-world situations.
Almost any business person would rather do an acquisiton than a divestiture - making a no-nonsense business approach a must. This comprehensive guide takes you through all the steps. From the initial strategic discussion which centers on analytics instead of emotional political biases or 'sacred' company history; to the project management of the sale transaction; to the softer human issues (which are usually given inadequate analysis). If you are looking for a pragmatic guide to a process that can get emotionally charged - this is your book.
The best thing about the topic is the hands-on approach to the topic. Haven't seen anything like it in Merger and Acquisition literature. Two authors who clearly know their stuff.
I would definitely recommend this book if you are interested in expanding your knowledge of corporate divestitures. Much better than many M&A books I have read.
Detailed, comprehensive and nuanced: the info is presented in a variety of ways made easy for every type of reader. Each systematic analysis is accessible via key-point charts, procedural outlines, step charts, & schedule charts - as well as lucid text. I would not have expected sections on preparing a data room, selection & structuring of so many functional prep teams, how-to's on retention planning, post-deal process assessment, etc. Inspires total confidence. Referenced with a 7-page Index.
