Business Opportunity and Social Good: Not a Zero Sum Game
How we created shared value in 2016
by Paul Grimwood, Chairman & CEO of Nestlé USA
Driving purposeful change through Creating Shared Value would not be possible without the dedication of our 51,000 employees across the U.S. Throughout our 2016 CSV report, we highlight employees whose jobs directly impact and influence the implementation of our commitment to society- the faces of Nestlé.
Creating Shared Value is not a donation strategy. It’s a fundamental guiding principle for how Nestlé does business and a strategy tool to deliver our purpose: enhancing quality of life and contributing to a healthier future. It’s based on the idea that how we operate every day can make a positive impact in the lives of individuals and families, our communities, and our planet, while achieving a positive bottom line. As the largest food and beverage company in the world, how we make our food, run our factories, and manage our supply chains can make a difference.
