You feel something is going on. You don't know exactly what, but the management is hiding something. They are always working on confidential projects, but this time it feels different?

Noticing you are the last one to understand what is going on feels baffling. But if you can read the signs, you can take immediate action to influence your situation.

Being acquired is nerve-racking. The uncertainty during the interim period will take you on an emotional rollercoaster ride. I just went through it. On some days you feel optimistic, on other days you think you will get fired. The waiting is the worst.

Change is coming, that is for sure. Acquisitions are tremendous investments to make more money in the future. Most business cases are built on realizing synergy effects. We all know what that means. Some heads are going to roll.

Change is always a good thing, given you are in the driver's seat. If you can read the clues, you can steer your life in the right direction. If not, you might end up standing on the street.

Let’s have a look at what happens inside a company when it gets ready to be sold.
