Lessons from Leadership Development:
The SAB Leadership Capability Journey

2. Context of this discussion
- 2 -
ü The purpose of this presentation is to share the journey of SAB with regards to our current
Leadership Capability
ü It is by no means a document to show the success or perfect journey in leadership development,
but rather the reality that faces businesses in such a journey, including challenges and learnings
ü This presentation will also show some practical roll-out ideas and tools within such a journey
ü Two important things as a start:
• If this was easy and simple, I would make millions and be in consulting now!
• Secondly, and more seriously, this kind of journey MUST be lead by the MD and Board of Directors,
else it WILL fail
3. The SABMiller Global Leadership Approach as a start…
n Grounded in best practise
- Developed in light of strategic intent and key challenges
- Based on data gathered from leaders at different levels
- 6-8 discrete behaviours which together describe the major
actionable shifts
n Rooted in our business
- Clear themes that reflect our own journey
- Language that’s right for us
3
4. What we have done to start this journey up-front
n Interviewed 100+ leaders across our business about key market
dynamics and corresponding leadership challenges
n Reviewed outputs of our business strategy as well as strategic
workshop outputs
n Interviewed the Change Leads about their projects and plans
n Examined experience of comparable organisations
n Discussed the proposals with SEF’s and acted on their feedback
4
5. Where were we after this?
n Our senior leaders recognised that their roles are changing
n Many are still trying to understand what the change will involve
n We all agreed that we need to make these new expectations clear
n We have identified the key shifts in behaviour through the right
language
n Most value will stem from how well we communicate, embed and
reinforce them
5
6. The key shifts in behaviour are as follows (our new
leadership behaviours!)
To be successful in becoming a globally integrated business our
leaders will need to:
n Be externally focused on consumers, customers, communities
n Demonstrate a whole business mind-set
n Make timely clear and prioritised choices
n Build relationships and trust across the business
n Develop capability for the long-term
n Be passionate and engaging
6
7. Finalising these Leadership Behaviours involved:
n Finalising the language used
n Aligning the launch plan with Internal Communication and Regional
MDs
n Producing communication materials that provide practical business
examples of how these behaviours will drive success
7
8. Reinforcing the Behaviours: Proposed Actions
n For Business and Functional Teams – Structured workshop to
provide intact teams with space to discuss what it means for them
n For Individuals - New behaviours embedded in our Leadership
Development programmes and tools
n Embedded in our HR processes starting in F15: PM and Leadership
Development
8
9. Non-negotiables:
n That a set of global leadership behaviours should be adopted to
support our move to becoming a globally integrated business
n That the ExCom will take personal and collective ownership for
communicating and leading these shifts in behaviour
n That the key focus in F15 should be our senior leaders (ExCom,
MDs, Country Operating Boards, Senior PLC and Hub)
n That they will be progressively incorporated into our HR processes
as a reinforcing mechanism

SAB South Africa Business Context: Our Journey to
Success
Where we are today
• Momentum restored
• Competitor on the back foot
• We can accelerate profit growth
• We have delivered
Outlook for the future
• The opportunities remain substantial
• New challenges have emerged
• We can still deliver over the long term
• Flying a plane built on the ground
NEW Challenges
• Social unrest
• Slowing SA economy and rand under pressure
• Competitive game moving to next stage
• Regulatory and legislative challenges
Mutually domestic focussed to globally integrated
The new Leadership Model in SAB Ltd & SABMiller talks about the
characteristics and behaviours that the new and upcoming leaders
of this organization must have!
15. New Global Leadership behaviours
- 15 -
To be successful in becoming a globally integrated business
our leaders will need to:
ü Be externally focused on consumers, customers,
communities
ü Demonstrate a whole business mind-set
ü Make timely clear and prioritised choices
ü Build relationships and trust across the business
ü Develop capability for the long-term
ü Be passionate and engaging
16. Reality
- 16 -
ü MDC started the conversation using draft behaviours
ü The MDC has 2 new members to be included into the journey
ü Draft 5 evolved into the Global Leadership behaviours
ü MDC to adjust focus areas to Global Leadership behaviours
ü All solutions still aligned and remain unchanged
ü Timelines for launch can still be maintained in F15
Our narrative for communicating the roll-out should focus
on building leadership capability – building the right skills to
operate optimally at each leadership transition level
17. Narrative: How do we quantum leap into
the future and Achieve our North Star?
- 17 -
ü We need to build organic growth
ü We need to do more than we ever have before with less
ü We are expected to change and adapt quicker today
ü As a global organisation embarking on an integrated change plan,
collaboration and engagement will ignite the spirit of trust and passion in
SAB
ü It is Leadership Capability operating at its optimal at each level in the
organisation that is our aim and it starts with each one of us getting
back to our leadership basics
It is only through our people that this much needed paradigm shift
can take place and it starts with each one of us, taking personal
accountability for our leadership journey

28. Guiding principles to achieve these
objectives
- 28 -
ü Capability building is Leader Led - Leaders to Role model
exemplar leadership behaviour
ü We will use subject matter experts and coaches where
required (internal & external)
ü We will build capability in the work that we do
ü We will follow the natural rhythm of the business
ü We will favour on the job training and action learning,
supported by formal training depending on the level of
the group
ü We will use tools and best practice from PLC
ü Good enough will never be good enough
29. Communicating the Behaviours: Non-Negotiables
- 29 -
ü Leader-led
ü Business-focused
ü Respecting our heritage
ü Authentic
Consistent approach but not identical activities
30. What is expected of all our Leaders
- 30 -
ü That leadership behaviours should be adopted to support our
move to becoming a globally integrated business
ü That the MDC & SEF will take personal and collective ownership
for communicating and leading these shifts in behaviour
ü That the key focus in F15 should be our senior leaders (MDC,
SEF)
ü That they will be progressively incorporated into our HR
processes as a reinforcing mechanism
31. What's in it for me?
- 31 -
By embarking on this journey, we believe we will:
• Create a better working environment
• Leaders will succeed in the accomplishment of their goals
by operating optimally at their specific leadership level
• Grow as Leaders, personally and professionally.
• Contribute to the sustainable long term growth of the
organization
• Become a globally integrated organisation
Leadership is not just ‘what’ you do but ‘how’ you engage & behave. It is a way of
being that requires commitment, practice and daily discipline.
33. Meaningful Conversations: Leadership for
High Engagement Change
- 33 -
ü With meaningful conversation, we will be able to facilitate effective leadership and learning based
upon:
ü Collaboration
ü Effective decision making
ü Innovation and
ü Productive dialogues
The Process consists of:
• A 2 hour orientation session by internally
accredited facilitators for every line manager
• Customised toolkits to guide a line
managers and employees discussion on the
various topics
• This toolkit works in conjunction with the
coaching skills for Line managers – ‘Be the
Coach’ 2 or 1 day training session
• HRBP’s will be trained as facilitators and
allocated per region
Conversation is the DNA of interpersonal communication and by extension organisational
culture. It is also the road to personal, team and organisational transformation
35. Leadership Fundamentals – Getting Back
to Leadership Basics
- 35 -
Programme Overview: as listed below
• Internal facilitators will be accredited to develop these capabilities within
the business from front line leaders and above
36. Leading Self
- 36 -
Module 1 - Helping SABM make the best use of resources and maintain a positive reputation.
ü This module will be run in-country and already exists as part of the induction process.
Module 2 – Enabling you to contribute and perform
ü This module is designed in-house and will form the major part of the two-day regional launch.
ü This module will focus on understanding the context of the programme and goal setting for the individuals.
It will introduce the concept of self-leadership and allow participants the opportunity to consider the leader
they want to be.
Module 3 – Focussing myself
ü What is self-leadership? Why bother? The impact leadership has on self, the impact on others and the way
to build a powerful reputation as someone who gets things done.
Module 4 – Building trust
ü Following on from Module 3 where the focus is on the individual, this module will broaden their perspective
to consider which relationships they need to build and how to go about doing so.
Module 5 – My contribution
ü Module 5 provides the opportunity for them to learn about team. The focus of this module is on developing
yourself to become fully effective in the context of helping your team to improve performance.

3. Behaviours
What behaviours are rewarded
and recognised to indicate an
exemplar Leadership culture?
The only way to make a
behaviour become
consistent over time is
through positive re-
inforcement.
2. Systems and Processes
What systems and processes are in place that indicate
this is an exemplar Leadership culture?
Integrate the leadership behaviours into our existing
processes and what other processes will enable the
behaviour change
1. Symbols
What are the symbols that indicate
this is an exemplar Leadership
culture?
Symbols like how people are
rewarded and recognized is
important. People who
demonstrate
exemplar leadership get promoted
4. Values and Beliefs
What values and
beliefs are held by
our employees that
drive an exemplar
Leadership culture?
Do the employees have
belief in their
rules of engagement/
Commitments
etc and what does it
look
like. Are they living it.

54. In closing…(sfw)
• Leadership development is a journey…a never-ending journey
• It is about the ride…and not the final destination
• Everyone can always keep developing their own leadership skills…if
they are willing and open for this ongoing change process
• It is never a completed journey!
• So, you need:
• Full-time dedicated resources (CoE? / Budget / Tools and
Processes)
• For people to see how leadership can / will impact on business
results – find that direct link
• To reward leadership behaviours across all levels
• To make it part of the PM process (HOW goals through 360 degree
process)
• To be patient!

71. The Global Leadership Behaviours
Focus Externally on our Consumers, Customers and Communities
LEADERSHIP
BEHAVIOUR
We strive to understand the aspirations and needs of all our stakeholders, being curious about what they
think, and listening even when what we hear is inconvenient or doesn’t align with our view of the world. We
develop insights and foresights that shape the offerings and experiences we provide. We use their
standards as benchmarks of our performance.
WHAT WE DO
ü Develop networks and contacts that provide insight into the changing environment
ü Learn from what is happening in other markets and geographies
ü Stand in our stakeholders’ shoes, and look for what will work for us both
ü Develop strategies and plans that are consumer and customer focused
ü Focus on on adding value to our customers, consumers and communities
ü Benchmark our performance rigorously against the very best – within and beyond our industry
WE WILL
x Be so naïve or arrogant to think we are right and our stakeholder is wrong
x Get so caught up in internal issues that we lose sight of what matters to our stakeholders
WE WON’T
Consumer and customer insight is a core strength of the world’s most admired consumer goods
companies. To win in our changing environment, we need to use this to drive what we do so we deliver
value to them. During our journey to becoming a globally integrated business, it’s imperative we don’t
become too internally focused.
WHY IT MATTERS
72. The Global Leadership Behaviours
Demonstrate a Whole Business Mind Set
LEADERSHIP
BEHAVIOUR
We take collective ownership, looking beyond our individual situations to think and act in ways
that benefit the business as a whole. We focus on the big issues that will make a material
difference to our long-term business performance.
WHAT WE DO
To become a globally integrated business that delivers superior performance and optimizes
returns for the Group, we must leverage our global skills and scale by pulling together,
standardizing and integrating our activities and processes.
WHY IT MATTERS
ü Make decisions on our own accountabilities/priorities in light of the wider business interests
ü Seek out what’s worked elsewhere and adopt it
ü Be willing to change our own priorities in the interests of the whole business
ü Identify the particular role we can play in optimizing the performance of the whole business
ü Learn more about the priorities and issues of others in the wider business
ü Enthusiastically promote the ideas of colleagues, putting aside personal hobby horses
x Continue to create our own approaches or adapt others’
x Protect things of personal importance which aren’t material in the bigger scheme of things
WE WILL
WE WON’T
73. The Global Leadership Behaviours
Make Timely, Clear and Prioritised Choices
LEADERSHIP
BEHAVIOUR
We prioritise and focus our resources through being selective and consistent in pursuing
initiatives that drive value in both the short and long-term; we stop things that are no longer of
value.
WHAT WE DO
We need to make difficult choices, and be better in prioritising, sequencing and pacing the work
we do, so we tackle the big challenges, create clarity for those we lead, are more agile and
responsive, and make SABMiller a great place to work.
WHY IT MATTERS
ü Be choiceful in selecting things that will make a real difference to long-term performance
ü Focus ourselves and our teams on a small number of KPIs that really matter
ü Provide and seek feedback loops so we know what isn’t working and can adapt accordingly
ü Work on issues at the right level for our role and avoid getting involved in others’ detail
ü Debate issues rigorously, engage in productive conflict to understand and resolve the issues
ü Act in line with the choices we have made rather than re-opening the debate
x Use the need for more data as a pretext for avoiding making a decision or taking action
x Consistently prioritise the short-term
WE WILL
WE WON’T
74. The Global Leadership Behaviours
Build Relationships and Trust Across the Business
LEADERSHIP
BEHAVIOUR
We seek others’ input and develop trusting professional relationships with colleagues and
stakeholders. We share knowledge and resources to achieve joint outcomes and create teams
that work effectively across organisational boundaries.
WHAT WE DO
Working well with others outside our market or functional area to achieve business outcomes is
a key change required to become a globally integrated business. Investing time in building
relationships and trust with them provides an essential foundation.
WHY IT MATTERS
ü Make a point of valuing the expertise and insights that others bring to the table
ü Invest time and effort into building relationships with colleagues across the business
ü Actively seek the input of key internal stakeholders to decisions that we hold the ‘A’ for
ü Test our own assumptions by asking questions and actively listening to our colleagues
ü Get the right team around an issue, involving all those who can add value to the situation
ü Express our views openly, constructively and respectfully
x Assume people outside our team aren’t able to provide insight into our issues
x Express a lack of commitment or undermine team decisions that we’ve signed up to
WE WILL
WE WON’T
75. The Global Leadership Behaviours
Develop Our People and Organisation for the Long-term
LEADERSHIP
BEHAVIOUR
We invest our time and money in systematically developing the diversity of knowledge, skills
and people needed to achieve our strategic priorities. We provide constructive feedback that
helps others learn and grow.
WHAT WE DO
One of our key leadership legacies will be an organisation full of people equipped to take the
organisation forward in the long-term
WHY IT MATTERS
ü Seek colleagues’ feedback, identify improvement areas and take action to develop ourselves
ü Provide candid and constructive feedback to help others learn
ü Recognise and reward people for developing others
ü Build more diverse teams to bring a wider range of abilities and experiences to the business
ü Take personal responsibility for the development of our team
ü Identify and build the critical capabilities required for long-term business success
x Take a ‘sink or swim’ approach to development
x Avoid giving challenging or difficult feedback in a constructive manner
WE WILL
WE WON’T
76. The Global Leadership Behaviours
Be Passionate and Engaging
LEADERSHIP
BEHAVIOUR
We lead by example and communicate positively to create engagement and support change;
we strive to be more aware of ourselves and our impact on others. We show appreciation for
great performance.
WHAT WE DO
Actions speak louder than words. As we lead our organisation through a period of challenge
and change we need to create confidence through being realistically positive about the future
and involve others more in helping to build it.
WHY IT MATTERS
ü Go out of our way to understand others’ views and their reasons for them
ü Seek to persuade rather than intimidate others with our views
ü Visibly demonstrate commitment to becoming a globally integrated business
ü Help people deal with change, making sense of it and how it fits together
ü Involve others more to help shape the journey to becoming globally integrated
ü Value different perspectives to our own, listening and respecting others’ points of view
x Say what we think without considering its impact and how it will land
x Rely on our positional power, merely seeking compliance with our views
WE WILL
WE WON’T
