The Model employed by Nestle is one of High Performance, High involvement and high commitment. Nestle is unique in the sense that it has been able to successfully inculcate its business objective as well as its core values, consistently in its employees day-to-day activities starting from recruitment till continuous performance appraisals. Like, open and flexible culture is ensured by way of providing training programs to employees at all the levels.
This kind of culture is also supported by decentralized structure of Nestle. Transparent performance appraisal systems and the freedom given to them to question their seniors benefit not only the employees but even the organization as a whole. Nestle’s emphasis on individual achievement is evident from the kind of pay structure HR has designed for its employees.
Need to develop consultation/awareness program to assist the employees for their better understanding of the policies.
More incentives should be offered to the employees who provide services to the organization for more than two years continuously.
Nestlé, over its long historical development from a small village operation to the world’s leading food Company, has demonstrated an enviable capability to adjust to an ever changing external environment, without losing its fundamental beliefs and core values, so important for long-term success. Over the years to come, this capability of using HR as a strategic partner in implementation of company’s activities will continue to be challenged even more as Nestlé is growing in size and complexity up to a dimension which demands a continuous evolution of its organization and of the way in which it is run. Its motivation based on willingness to learn and to question what it is doing and why it is doing it, combined with its long standing respect for Nestlé values, will assure its success.
