Abstract

This research extended the findings on the effect of merge and acquisition by applying social identity theory. Various (correlates) of merge and acquisition were investigated using 818 South Korean employees. This investigation had purposes. it is identified that effect of status perception and the permeability of status difference between employees from merging and merged organization on pre-merger organizational identity and pre-merger organizational identity management strategy. The main results were as followed. the more they were likely to have a high pre-merger organization identity, they more use collective behavior strategy and less use individual behavior strategy. And when people who are relatively low status perceived, the more they were likely to have a high pre-merger organization identity, they more use collective cognition strategy. And People who had merged relative to people who had been merged think of their status high. At the same time, the more permeable people who think of their status high perceived, the more they were likely to have a high pre-merger organization identity. In contrast, when people who are relatively low status perceived their current status permeable, they felt low pre-merger identity and likely to use individual behavior strategy and more use collective cognition strategy.
