BarkBark Inc. and Happy Toys Ltd. are considering a merger and are worried that their two organizational cultures will clash. They perform a detailed diagnosis by collecting and analyzing data about the employees of the two companies. They identify several overlapping values, which they feel can be combined into a cohesive new culture. What type of cultural merge would be best in this situation?

Integration

Explanation:

Intergration can be defined as a scenario where a group of people with a particular culture decide to adopt another culture without sacrificing characteristics of their present culture.

In the given scenario Bark Bite has two sets of employees with overlapping values they can use to form a new culture. If the different groups adopt the new culture without sacrificing their old one it is called culture intergration.

This is the type of cultural merge the company needs at this time
