Mauro Libi Crestani: Coca-Cola and the share value initiative

The Coca-Cola Company founded in 1892, is the world’s largest soft drink maker. It sells more than 3,500 products worldwide. Like all large companies, you do not stay number one unless you constantly work at staying number one. Of course the product is of up most importance but so is the image of the company. That is where share value initiative comes into play. Coke Cola knows that the Hispanic community is the fastest growing community in the USA. To get s large share of this community to support and buy its products would be very profitable. Share Value Initiative concept is that if you pull your resources and help a community that you in turn would benefit. 

Coke Cola runs a Hispanic scholarship fund to help Latinos with their college cost. The median income of Hispanic families is well below any other minority group in the US. The percentage going to college a few years ago was low and with scholarships like these, the college attendance rate in the Hispanic community has grown to 65% of high school graduates. 

For Hispanic Heritage Month, Coke Cola is doing a campaign called Orgulloso De Ser. It is s film about the personal lives and stories of our Hispanic families, their pride in their band and heritage. 

“At Coca-Cola we have been a part of so many of the important moments in Hispanic families’ lives, and we want to continue making new memories with them,” said Lauventria Robinson, vice president, Multicultural Center of Excellence, Coca-Cola North America. “During Hispanic Heritage Month, we are celebrating the immense pride Latinos have for their culture and heritage, a pride that translates most significantly into their family names, which they carry with honor and joy.”

Mauro Libi Crestani: Change initiatives are not just whole scale business transformations

By  Mauro Libi Crestani.  Business hire management teams to figure out new ways to solve customer problems, improve products, create new revenue streams, and reduce costs. This involves creating new ideas for change. Technology, innovation, products and the way of doing business means coming up with new ideas for staying competitive in today’s quick moving market. Every change starts with an idea—a vision of what could happen to create a tangible benefit for an organization. But ideas are not enough. Change initiatives are not just whole scale business transformations. These make-or-break moments can also be leadership changes, restructurings, culture changes, system implementations, operational excellence programs, workforce programs or new market expansions. This involves time and money. Given all the investment in change and its importance to a company’s future health it is important to take note that…..

Mauro Libi Crestani: Negative attitude can destroy your career and personal life

I once went into a car dealership for a car purchase. I was meet by a salesman who was dressed in a well ironed suit and he had the biggest smile. He introduced himself by name and he asked for my name. He offered me something to drink as we discussed my desires in a car.  Let me assure you, that you came to the right place. He had been with that dealership for years. His customers stayed with him each time they wanted a new car.  I was told that this car dealership was about positive attitude. The salespeople , the finance  department , the service department all had to be positive that their customers were treated with the best service and that all their needs and concerns were listened to and acted on.

How does technology help in business communication?

One of the elements which has undoubtedly worked to support our growth, expansion and excellence projects in the last years, has been technology applied to business communication.

And our times make use of digital communication to improve business processes with more efficient and functional ways which allow more interaction, and overall, business productivity.
