In this episode of Focus on Growth, Tom Doorley welcomes Barry Winer, head of M&A research at Deloitte, to discuss the evolving landscape of mergers and acquisitions.

Drawing on Deloitte’s “Time to Pivot” survey, they explore how dealmakers are shifting from reactive to proactive strategies—adapting with strategic, financial, and geographic pivots.

They also highlight integration planning as a learned competency and the emerging collaboration between private equity and corporations. Despite uncertainty, the message is clear: opportunity exists for those prepared to act decisively.
