Mergers are intended to create more robust firms, but history shows such combinations routinely fall short of expectations, often due to inadequate employee identification with the new organization. Duringarchival research of the primary Mexican American Civil Rights groups in South Texas in the 1920s, most of which eventually merged into the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC), we discovered substantial intimation of the construction and preservation of a leadership identity capable of engendering enhanced post-merger identification. Accordingly, we examined the behaviors and beliefs of the principal founders of LULAC to reveal a process of post-merger leadership grounded in pragmatism and personalism that produced the climate, trust, and commitment needed to enhance the behavior and identification necessary for organizational success and maintenance of the leadership identity.
