About this lesson

The lesson explains how to recommend an effective integration team, justify its composition and leadership, and measure both the delivery of the integration plan and the benefits achieved. You’ll also examine how to improve operating performance and generate cash for reinvestment, including dynamic pricing, cross-selling, restaurant performance, purchasing efficiencies and asset maintenance. The lesson clarifies the difference between operating profit, dividend policy and dividend cover after an acquisition, while showing how to apply theory to the scenario, use baselines and evidence, and avoid answers that drift away from the requirement.
