Rowland Chen's document from February 2025 highlights the critical need for executive alignment in acquisition integrations. It points out that a large percentage of acquisitions fail, costing trillions of dollars, due to issues like inadequate planning, poor cultural integration, and unrealized synergies. To combat this, the document advocates for early and frequent executive workshops focused on achieving agreements on key aspects of the acquisition. These workshops aim to provide a consistent vision, accelerate integration, and enable faster execution.

The Silicon Valley Laboratory (TSVL) offers tools and frameworks to facilitate this alignment, with the goal of helping companies avoid common pitfalls and improve their chances of a successful acquisition. TSVL's team brings experience from various industries and consulting backgrounds to offer expertise in mergers and acquisitions. The document positions executive alignment as a way to mitigate risks and increase the odds of a positive outcome in the acquisition process.
