In comparison, in 2003, the total amount paid was US$12.92 billion.However, statistics show that the failure rate of most mergers and acquisitions lies somewhere between 40-80%. If one were to define ‘failure’ as failure to increase shareholder value then statistics show these to be at the higher end of the scale at 83% (Cnnfn.com 1999).

Downsizing is never an easy decision. There is an inherent conflict between protecting the company’s interests and that of employees. This balancing act can be a real dilemma for an organization as it tries to insure its long-term survival, and its desire to protect the welfare of its employees.Handled improperly, a company downsizing can damage the public standing of both the organization and its management. People have long memories, and after a difficult time an organization needs the support of the remaining employees in order to rebuild.Consider the costs once remaining employees begin to question their company’s published ethical standards and values.

Another difference between logos and word marks becomes readily apparent when conducting a trademark search. Word marks may be easily searched by keyword to locate marks that are the same as or similar to the mark being searched.
