December 2026 | Compressed Leadership Alignment: Protecting M&A Value Under Time Pressure Deal value is often determined after closing, when leadership teams must turn the deal thesis into action under tight investor expectations and integration deadlines. In this webinar, Dr. Joanna Konstantinou explores how time pressure can affect trust, decision-making and execution, and how teams can build shared direction, role clarity and constructive challenge without settling for superficial agreement. Drawing on her research across repeated CEO transitions, she examines three competing clocks—investor expectations, transaction milestones and leadership recovery—and introduces her CREST framework for identifying alignment gaps, accelerating realignment and sustaining cohesion through change. Attendees will gain a practical leadership perspective on protecting post-deal execution and value realization. What You’ll Learn
