Danone – Providing Sustainable Leadership Development

Breakthrough approach:

We worked closely with the central design team and partnered with individual business units worldwide to identify the specific behavioural changes necessary to embed Danone’s distinctive ‘Leadership Culture’. Once defined, we mapped specific Breakthrough Tools and Technology against this leader framework. 

• With the help of a Global Design Team, each behaviour was fully defined at a Central L&D level to include 4-6 detailed facets within each behaviour. This included leaders from across the Business and Breakthrough. Breakthrough Tools were mapped against each of the four leadership behaviours. 
• This was deployed through a customised Breakthrough T3 Programme including European-wide licensing, Breakthrough events and Internal Facilitator-led sessions. 
• Over 500 Internal Facilitators were trained and accredited in the Breakthrough Tools. 
• Customised added value material including Toolkit cards, videos and bespoke anchoring materials were distributed across the business.
