Essay from the year 2020 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 75%, The University of York, course: Cross-Cultural Managemnet & Negotiation, language: English, abstract: The automotive industry has been facing increasing problems over the last years and COVID-19 accelerated the situation. Changes in the industry are challenging the automotive manufacturers to defend their position and adapt to constantly changing conditions. Some manufacturers, such as PSA and FiatChrysler already announced mergers to be jointly successful in the future (European Commission, 2020). Since Chrysler was part of several M&A activities, it is interesting to take a look at past Chrysler mergers and consider which factors regarding cross-cultural management influenced the merger outcome. The example of the DaimlerChrysler merger will be used for this purpose in order to analyse the merger towards cultural differences and behaviour of both parties under consideration of cross-cultural management theory which had an influence on the failure of the merger by means of Hofstede's cultural dimensions.
