The interview with Peter Brabeck‐Letmathe, Chief Executive Officer of Nestlé S.A., focuses on three core business concepts: Nestlé's leadership style in today's global environment, the importance of Nestlé's core values, and some future challenges to Nestlé. Nestlé's ideal leaders are dynamic, multicultural, and open‐minded; they continuously seize the opportunities that a changing environment offers. Nestlé's Basic Management and Leadership Principles are the foundation upon which changes are enacted and implemented. Nestlé's organizational structures are tailored to facilitate business in many different product categories. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
