transferred from local company to listen company during the year 2012. Major difficulty was
that of increase in prices of food items under the menu. This has resulted in reduction of targeted
consumers due to which great loss has incurred (Dreachslin and et.al. 20017) However, to
overcome those difficulties' restaurant can adopt several change strategies. In order to implement
changes under Tsui Wah restaurant in Hong Kong several strategies must be adopted and should
create resistance among employees (Axelrod and Axelrod, 2017). Therefore, every organization
follows some common practices in order to overcome new strategies. By developing key
deliverable for organizations, departments as well as every person that are included in
encouraging new business strategies. In order to implement new business strategies final out and
reports are created which are recognized as deliverable. For example- one deliverable is prepared

However, to manage those risks they can select group of members or staff and describes them
about key elements that has to be adopted for managing plans and implement those accordingly
(Morin and et.al., 2016). Goals and objectives must be determined and likewise plans must be
prepared and conveyed by leaders towards his subordinates in order to achieve them at specified
duration. Report must be prepared by leader or manager of Tsui Wah restaurant in regard of the
performance of employees and according to that incentives or rewards should be generated to

2016). Similarly, to generate more income and growth, cited restaurant must enhance its cost

brochures, hoardings, internet etc. to make consumers aware about the prices as well as food
products which are manufactured. Thus, by adopting all of these strategies risks and hurdles of

Change management is a most crucial part that should be adopted by every organization
in order to promote growth and success of the firm. In order to support leaders and managers
various training programs of change management must be provided to them. Ali baba group an
international company has decided to expand its business by acquiring with local company that is
'South China Morning Post'. In order to promote coverage of China in English language SCMP
company has adopted unique ways which has resulted in generating high demand among
potential readers. Ali Baba company has merged with SCMP in order to expand its readership
globally through digital distribution (Van der Voet and Vermeeren, 2017). However, Ali Baba
company has expertised technology of leverage which can develop its content effectively all
around the globe. Major aim of this company is to make SCMP more popular and stronger.
However, this acquisition of both the companies has developed a portfolio of titles of magazines
such as- Harper's bazaar, Elle, The Peak, Esquire and Cosmopolitan.

Change management model.
For coping up among changes that has been faced under Ali Baba company after
acquisition can be effectively managed after adoption of McKinsey 7-S model of change
management(Van der Voet and Vermeeren, 2017). This model benefits leaders in coping up
among changes by understanding shared values, company's structure, formulates strategies,
systems, adopting communication styles, by making understand their staff about company's
requirements and lastly aims in adopting training sessions or seminars for their employees to
enhance their skills related to assigned tasks or activities undertaking under cited company.
Therefore, all these changes need to be implemented in several ways including: -
Implementing changes in developing talents: - changes are broken among separate pieces so
that it can be analyzed more efficiently. Implementation of changes are generally best received in
the way of bite sized chunks, unless of course etc. in order to examine every circumstance that
are occurring must be tested by employees before it is embedded fully. It is beneficial in
ensuring what people are buying more and why. Cited company formulates management plans
and describes among their employees to enable the changes wherever required.
Communicating rationale behind the need for change: - explanation must be provided to every
employee before introducing any kind of change within organization and they should be made
aware that why such changes are adopted. All these things need to be conveyed effectively and
carefully towards affected parties. Opportunity to put their views and thoughts must be given to
employeeseconomies of scale by boosting earning per share and would even achieve domination.

growth. Acquisition of Ali Baba company and SCMP company has emerged high
competitiveness among their competitors and has enhanced its revenue and growth for present as
well as for future (Slater, Evans and Turner, 2016). Similarly, it is also enhance synergies and

2.6 Difficulties go through after acquisition.
At the time when Ali Baba Company merged with SCMP company several issues or
hurdles must have been gone through by those firms. Generally, there is a big slowdown of
merging companies among each other because it has resulted in developing the value of higher
deals than ever (Srivastava and et.al., 2016). Adoption of such process encourages both aspects
whether negative or positive. However, difficulties that are faced by companies involve: -
Difficulty in language and communication styles: - as companies are from cross borders and
follows different languages. However, difference in communication style can cause
misunderstandings among both of them. Integration on two nationalities can further enhance
issues or hurdle between companies (Niazi and et.al., 2016). Therefore, it would be stressful for
employees in order to work in different languages in which they are not familiar. It can also
result in frustrations and misunderstandings among colleagues. Thus, it can also result in miss
match among method of communication, amount of detailed shared, level of directness etc. this
company includes communication skill in training programmer, promote the effective
communication in front of employee and subordinate, they also can check language of employee
and improve telephonic malign other digital communication. Tsui wah leaders or managers has
adopted communications styles such as assertive, aggressive and manipulative styles which will
effectively exhibit required data towards employees. Further, it can conduct clear communication
or generate relevant information related to production activities without any misunderstanding or
misinterpretation.
Integration of national and organisational cultures: - acquisition between two companies
would generate fluctuations among their cultures. It includes – reward and recognition schemes,
work preferences, core values, hierarchical structures, business practices etc. these differences
need to be effectively recognized in order to eradicate all possible conflicts (Olivier, Aristidou,
Ernst and Van Cutsem, 2016).
This dedication along with our long term strategies in talent development, customer
service, restaurant operations, product development and branches network, has underpinned our
growth into a restaurant chain operating more than 20 outlets across Hong Kong, Macau and
Mainland China.
Human factor as a biggest challenge: - with international mergers and acquisitions there comes
an inevitable challenge such as human or cultural challenge which need to be determined

effectively. Minimizing of ignoring human culture would result in certain obstacles such as- 50%
of managers under Ali Baba company were resigned and has no impact in enhancing shareholder
value of the firm (Sherstyuk, Tarui, Ravago and Saijo, 2016). Thus, several hurdles come in way
at the time of acquisition and to overcome those effective change in management must be
influenced and employee morale need to be generated.
CONCLUSION
From the above study, it can be concluded that in order to gain growth and revenue of
firms or to expand the existing company all around globe it is crucial to adopt strategic
management changes. Flexibility in management and leadership style is very necessary in order
to cope up with issue and challenges that are faced under business environment. Several key
elements and strategies must be adopted in order to reduce risks that are pertaining under
business firms.
