Organization

We help consumer packaged goods companies optimize organizational performance to support the execution of their strategic and operational agendas. Following several decades of successful global expansion, many consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies now find themselves managing a wide array of products, brands, categories, and channels. Many of them also serve diverse customer segments in multiple countries worldwide. As a result, their organizational structures tend to be more complex than those of companies in other industries. This also means that organizational excellence is an important source of competitive advantages for CPG companies.

We help clients make fundamental decisions about the design of their organizations, including enterprise-level structure, functional structure, management processes and decision rights, and roles and responsibilities.

We help clients achieve systematic and sustainable improvements in areas such as business performance, organizational health, and functional capabilities. We engage with executives to design the overall transformation approach, conduct diagnostics, establish concrete change initiatives, and lend implementation support. We also develop and conduct top-level client-learning programs to strengthen our clients’ leadership skills.

We work with clients to unleash the true potential of their people. We offer guidance on talent strategy development, excellence in talent management, and the establishment of a talent culture. We also engage with clients on workforce strategy and planning.

We support clients who are considering a merger or an acquisition on preliminary planning, post-transaction integration, and capability building. We offer guidance on the definition of integration aspirations, the development of an adequate integration approach, and the alignment of organizations and cultures. We also help clients with integration execution and help them build capabilities for future transactions.
