This paper examines the strategic performance of Nestle, and answers a range of questions. The first question is “provide one example which clearly illustrates a link between topics or concepts drawn from at least two pre-requisite modules. The second question is “Does it make sense for Nestle to focus its growth efforts on emerging markets?” The third is “What is the company’s strategy with regards to business development in emerging markets? Does this strategy make sense? From an organisational perspective, what is required for this strategy to work effectively? The fourth question asks “undertake a performance analysis of the company of the last five years. What does the analysis tell you about the success or otherwise of the strategy adopted by the company?” The fifth question is “How would you describe Nestlé’s strategic posture at the corporate level, is it pursuing a global strategy, a multidomestic strategy, an international strategy or a transnational strategy?” The final question is “Is Nestlé’s management structure and philosophy aligned with its overall strategic posture?” The paper concludes with a reflective report on the learning outcomes of the study.
