INTRODUCTION OF NESTLE
Nestle is the leading FMCG company of Switzerland established by Henri Nestle.
Nestle is serving worldwide with its more than 500 factories in 86 countries
comprising almost all continents. Nestls product portfolio is more than 500 products
all over the world serving best to their customers.
Henri Nestl endowed his company with the symbol derived from his name. His
family coat of arms, the nest with a mother bird protecting her young, became the
Company's logo and a symbol of the Company's care and attitude to life-long
nutrition. The Nestl nest represents the nourishment, security and sense of family
that are so essential to life.
The first product made by Henri Nestl, a food for babies who were unable to
breastfeed. His first success was a premature infant who could not tolerate his
mother's milk or any of the usual substitutes. People quickly recognized the value of
the new product, after Nestl's new formula saved the child's life, and soon, Farine
Lacte Henri Nestl was being sold in much of Europe. Nestl has been serving
Pakistani consumers since 1988, when the parent company, the Switzerland-based
Nestl SA, first acquired a share in Milkpak Ltd. (1)
Nestl is committed to the following Business Principles in all countries, taking into
account local legislation, cultural and religious practices:
Nestl does not favor short-term profit at the expense of successful long-term
business development.
Nestl recognizes that its consumers have a sincere and legitimate interest in the
behavior, beliefs and actions of the Company behind brands in which they place
their trust, and that without its consumers the Company would not exist.
NESTLE VISION
The consumer's voice is the key to Nestl Pakistan's vision and working. Whether
you live in the remotest village or the city of Karachi, Nestle consumer services team
stands ready to listen to your concerns and provide answers about our products and
guidance on matters of health and wellness. (2)
Nestls global vision is to be the leading health, wellness, and Nutrition Company of
the world. Nestle Pakistan subscribes fully to this global vision. In addition to that,
Nestle Pakistan also envisions to:
Lead a dynamic motivated and professional workforce that is proud of its heritage
and bullish about the future
Meet the nutritional needs of all age groups through a diversified product range
that contains an innovative portfolio of branded food and beverages of the
highest quality
Strengthen the position as the best career destination for talented and motivated
individuals
NESTLE MISSION
Nestle is dedicated to providing the best foods to people throughout their day,
throughout their lives, throughout the world.
ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE
Finance manager and marketing manager are related with each other to meet their
marketing targets. It is important because alone marketing manager can not promote
any marketing strategy without any budget.
PROMOTIONAL STRATEGIES
Nestle launch was, perhaps one of the most aggressive as far as processed Nestle
product concerned, with TV, print ads, radio commercials, billboards and plenty of
BTL (below the line) activities including direct consumer and shop branding activities.
Due to this aggressive marketing campaign, the competition seems to be getting
tougher. So far ads focus towards the younger generation, who want to feel free,
young and excited, leading a healthy lifestyle. These ads are appealing a specific
social class.
They keep the information of the other companies what they are offering. Try to
improve their strategies from others so that they can promote their product more.
Like more companies are now coming in the market so there is more completion in
the market and they have to be up to date from the current situations.

HR managers and their staff are there to provide professional support in handling
people matters but should not substitute themselves to the responsible manager.
Their major responsibility is to contribute actively to the quality of HR management
throughout the organization by proposing adequate policies, ensuring their
consistent application and coherent implementation with fairness.
The communication skills of the HR staff must be appropriate to deal with all delicate
matters as they occur frequently in human relations issues. They gain their credibility
not only from their professional contribution but also through the care and the
excellence of their communication skills. (5)
RECRUITMENT PROCESS
According to latest count, thousands of employees are working in nestle. This is an
approximate figure as more hiring has been done in the recent past. Nestl follows a
set process for hiring more employees. The major document in this connection is the
"Recruitment Requisition Form". This document is used in all three instances; such
as for:
REPLACEMENT
Filling of a near position. Additions to the existing workforce
A recruitment opportunity may arise either after discussing or budgeting a position on
the resignation of some employee or on an urgent need basis. In all three situations,
the department head has to obtain approval from the Managing Director (MD). If the
request is budgeted, then the Divisional Head fills up a "Recruitment and Budgeted
Form". This form contains the complete information; i.e. the following particulars:
Date of initiation
Job description
MANAGEMENT TRAINEES
The procedure for selecting fresh graduates at Nestl is bit different as the trainees
cannot be short listed through their CV's. Management trainees are fresh graduates
or they have one year experience at the most. Management trainees are not called
directly. They are contacted through their placement officers. Salaries or benefits of
the management trainees do not vary with their specialization. Similarly the training
period is the same, whether they are selected for marketing or finance.
SUCCESSION PLAN
The succession plan at Nestl is made by the department head. He chooses his own
successor. It is the duty of the departmental head to train someone for his work, so
that there is a person to takeover in case he is transferred.

There is a classified system of job assessment at Nestl. Accountability incentives in
the form of business or facilities are provided to employees performing well.

We know Learning is part of the Company culture. Each employee, at all levels,
either a fresh or old, is conscious of the need to upgrade continuously her/his
knowledge and skills. The willingness to learn is therefore a non-negotiable condition
to be employed by Nestl. Training and Development is done on-the-job. Guiding
and coaching is part of the responsibility of each manager and it is crucial to make
each one progress in her/his position. When formal training programs are organized
they should be purpose oriented and designed to improve relevant skills and
competencies as Nestle does. Therefore they are proposed in the framework of
individual development programs. As a consequence, attending a program should
never be considered as a reward. Role of each manager at Nestle is to assess
progress, achieved as a result of training programs. The objective is to retain and
motivate employees by offering attractive but realistic career moves allowing them to
develop their skills over a long-term period within the framework of economic reality
and a changing environment. Each manager has the duty to act as a mentor for his
employees. At Nestle formal assessment take place on a standard basis, preferably
once a year. Its purpose is to provide feedback on past performance and future
potential as well as on other relevant aspects concerning a staff members work
including the development of his skills and competencies.
PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL
A performance appraisal, employee appraisal, performance review, or (career)
development discussion is a method by which the job performance of an employee is
evaluated (generally in terms of quality, quantity, cost, and time) typically by the
corresponding manager or supervisor.
Nestle give importance to their employees at their work place because Nestle totally
depend on their quality, so quality achieved by the Nestle on the bases their
employees performance. So if employees are on right track so company gives
incentives to their employees.

LEADERSHIP STYLE
The Nestl Management and Leadership Principles describe the management style
and the corporate values of the Nestl Group, specifically in the area of interpersonal
relations. Their respect calls for specific attitudes which deserve to be outlined in the
present policy:
A prerequisite for dealing with people is respect and trust. There can be no room for
intolerance, harassment or discrimination of any kind as they are the expression of
an elementary lack of respect. This principle suffers no exception and is to be
applied at all levels and under all circumstances.
Nestle has Democratic Leadership Style because they take advise from their
employees and review it and then take decision. The long-term success of the
Company depends on its capacity to attract, retain and develop employees able to
ensure its growth on a continuing basis. This is a primary responsibility for all
managers. The Nestl policy is to hire staff with personal attitudes and professional
skills enabling them to develop a long-term relationship with the Company.
Therefore the potential for professional development is an essential standard for
recruitment.
Hence, a clear communication of these principles and values from the very
beginning of the recruitment process is required.
