摘要

  在追求快速成長策略下,達成併購整合之預期目標,已成為學術界和企業界最關心的議題(Huyghebaert & Luypaert, 2010)。跨國企業併購失敗的問題歸因於併購過程中的人員調適問題(Bartels, Douwes, Jong & Pruyn, 2006),人員調適問題原因在於新組織群體之間存在的知覺差異(Jetten & Trindall, 2002)、員工不確定合併會如何影響他們的工作、溝通的延遲(Nguyen & Kleiner, 2003)等。認知失調問題會製造許多管理上的衝突。跨國企業併購的整合機制對減少組織內部的衝突是必要的,人力資源部門應透過有效地降低員工認知失調,進而使被併公司員工對主併公司產生認同,有助於員工面對併購時不產生排斥的現象。本研究透過量化實證研究的方式,提出相關的分析。結果顯示:(1)認知失調確實會影響被併公司員工在併購中的離職意願與組織承諾;(2)員工個人背景的不同,在併購過程中的心理調適所受的影響有所差異。
