HOW TO Survive a Merger

Описание: "Your 'Exceeds Expectations' review means nothing right now; to the new buyers, you are just a line on a spreadsheet they are looking to trim."
It keeps senior leaders and engineers stuck in the same cycles — invisible hard work, technical isolation, and waiting for a status meeting that will never go your way.

In this video, I’m breaking down the exact strategic positioning and gatekeeper mindset shift that finally changed my survival rate after years of watching high-performers get liquidated during integrations.

You’ll learn:
• Why your historical performance reviews are irrelevant the moment the LOI is signed
• How the "heads-down" coding mentality traps you in the redundancy pool
• The truth about "Culture Committees" vs. Technical Integration workgroups
• Why most people mistake documentation for job security when it’s actually a handoff
• The "Integration Bridge" framework you must build to become unfireable
• How to gain control of the narrative - without asking for permission from HR
• How to identify the buyers' true technical goals to pivot your role starting this week

If you’re tired of being overlooked, undervalued, or left wondering if your badge will work on Monday… this is the blueprint.
