Editor's Notes

  1. threat of P&G merger as a threat..tougher business climate
  2. Snapshot of acquisitions Each had strong brand portfolios (visible) Helped fuel growth
  3. Deleted 2001 chart; just speak to sales increase in beauty category (18% to 33%)
  4. which falls short of target ( 5-6%)
  5. Recently lost CEO No longer doing Path to Growth strategy Dual leadership; focus on “One Unilever” Not bringing value to the customers; not connecting Lowering price on brands; not positioning themselves well
  6. Reorganize management structure Benchmark P & G’s strategy (market development organization); Unilever’s management is spread thin – no focus Slow to react to changing customer needs and trends; have spent less on R & D since 2000 (Unilever Believer)
  7. Operates under a complex
  8. Recently lost CEO No longer doing Path to Growth strategy Dual leadership; focus on “One Unilever” Not bringing value to the customers; not connecting Lowering price on brands; not positioning themselves well
  9. Recently lost CEO No longer doing Path to Growth strategy Dual leadership; focus on “One Unilever” Not bringing value to the customers; not connecting Lowering price on brands; not positioning themselves well
