Abstract

Integration in the context of corporate change is required at many levels. For entire companies—for example in mergers and acquisitions—for departments, project teams or even purely virtual teams. The goal is always to ensure a harmonious and cooperative togetherness that accelerates change and increases productivity. Despite all the problems, integration requires a basic will to work together, otherwise prejudices cannot be overcome. In addition, individual groups must not be too dominant, so that new rules of cooperation can be jointly defined. Integration can be specifically promoted during daily work, but also within the framework of measures off the job, like in team-building seminars.
