Fit-for-purpose leadership in a global organization – Driving Arla Foods to 2020

by Rasmus Calmann-Hinke, Vice President, Head of Corporate Strategy Execution Office at Arla Foods

Rasmus Calmann H.

Abstract

The future of global leadership lies with the creation of self-driving teams; teams that have the freedom and intellectual capabilities to drive businesses forward but do so under one shared vision with values they believe in. Leveraging experience from extreme sports, numerous years in consulting, and exposure to international markets & mindsets I will be giving a brief talk outlining the role of leadership in my corporate strategy execution team at Arla Foods. During the talk I will provide you with a sneak preview of the leadership style that will drive us to become the best strategy execution team in our industry in the world. You will hear more about dare-devil mindsets, setting the bar higher, getting things done, freedom and innovation – all values of modern day leaders and characteristics looked for in new graduates.

The talk will be structured into 4 segments:

  1. Arla Foods’ Good Growth 2020 Strategy
  2. Our Arla Foods Leadership Model & how it’s lived in the organization
  3. The impact of extreme sports & personal values on my leadership style
  4. How I lead my self-sustaining strategy execution & incubation team

Rasmus Calmann-Hinke currently leads Arla Foods’ Corporate Strategy Execution Office driving both the global strategy & strategy execution agendas and also a new incubation unit focused on creating the future of dairy. Prior to joining Arla Foods in 2011 Rasmus had been at Alcatel for 6 years (3 years focused on the Nordics/Baltics and 3 years at the Paris HQ) and was Head of the Nordic Communications, Media and Technology practice at Booz & Company, now strategy&.
