Overview

For large companies comprised of multiple product groups or resulting from growth through mergers and acquisitions, the S"" word, synergy, is touted as a great strategic advantage, but more often than not turns out to be a mirage, as managers haggle over turf and the parent company lacks the skills or commitment to recognize, support, and sustain collaboration.
