ORANISATIONAL STRUCTURE
HEADQUARTERS
LEADERSHIP STYLEA DECENTRALIZED AND ALIGNED ORGANISATION
In addition to how our managers carry out their work as leaders, Nestlé pragmatically implements the following organizational principles
Being as decentralized as possible to optimally respond to the needs of consumers, within the framework defined by our fundamental policies, strategic directions and operational efficiencies.
Ensuring collaboration of all Nestlé businesses and compliance with Nestlé principles, policies and standards (Nestlé in the Market approach).
Building and maintaining a structure which assures operational speed, with a strong focus on results and removing unnecessary obstacles.
Establishing flat and flexible organizations with minimal levels of management and broad spans of control, which also enable people development.
Setting a shared vision and common goals to leverage the strength of people and organizational alignment. Defining clear levels of responsibility. Teamwork does not affect the manager’s duty towards his/her people
and business results. A team must always have a leader who assumes full responsibility.
A happy, stable workforce not only delivers better customer service, it is also more effective at building sales and attracting repeat business.
