- In the context of the times for Unilever (challenging & tumultuous) evaluate Polman's decision to introduce a new strategy based on the USLP (Unilever Sustainable Living Plan)?
- How was Polman's implementation of USLP accomplished that made it successful? Any leadership lessons for you in his approach?
- Which of the 3 options from the end of the case would you have recommended management take? a. double down, shoot for a stronger effort to reach future goals. b. hunker down by scaling back on USLP, show financial restraint. c. pivot and refocus the company strategy on the new partnership-based transformational change agenda. Why did you pick the one you did and what did you dislike about the other choices?
