Abstract

The current working paper focuses on the created context within post-merger companies provides the scope to develop new types of business, to increase the competitiveness of active companies with the economic sphere, offering new opportunities to increase productivity and efficiency of all activities. New perspectives generate significant changes for the human resources involved in the designing new strategies for work improvement. Considering the perpetual development of human capital in this new economic context we can say that using fusion strategies is an evolutionary process, which can improve business processes, the primary condition to be an ongoing review of strategies, techniques and tools companies who choose the path to this new digital economy. Failures or problems do not only belong to the past, certainly in the future will be more mergers and acquisitions will fail. Fusion and absorption difficulties will not disappear in the future, despite the terribly poor performance and errors of the past. Post merger, must bear in mind that endogenous parameters that generate highly qualified human capital migration to other companies of the human factor materializes need to resize their quality of living environment, social, economic, and those connected with company policy a major impact on the decision to leave the parent company.
