      abstract = {Bettina Hauser develops a research model, which  encompasses entrepreneurial leadership as a major success  factor during post-merger integration. Additionally,  contextual variables, namely cultural distance and the  organizational variable, relative size, are tested for  their moderating effect on the influence of entrepreneurial  leadership on M&A performance. The author clarifies the  question of how entrepreneurial leadership can help to  enhance M&A performance. Based on 114 transactions with  acquirers of German-speaking companies, she proves that  entrepreneurial leadership has a positive effect on  post-acquisition performance and helps to overcome problems  related to cultural differences.
