Leaders' Engagement

At Unilever, we believe that social media today is far more than a communication channel — it’s where culture, creativity, and commerce intersect. As consumer habits evolve, so must our approach. We are constantly exploring how new technologies like artificial intelligence (AI), attention metrics, and social verification tools can help us build stronger connections, enhance engagement, and drive meaningful business outcomes.

We believe communications are more than just a tool for sharing information — they are a strategic force for shaping behavior, building trust, and driving meaningful change. As part of our commitment to purposeful business, we believe that storytelling, stakeholder engagement, and digital innovation are essential to creating shared value.

In today's world, Unilever's marketing strategy is evolving. The company focuses on understanding consumers and creating propositions that meet their needs. This involves changing approaches to reach, engage, and persuade audiences, shifting from a one-to-many model to a many-to-many model through communities.

At Unilever, the legal department plays a critical role in ensuring that our operations are compliant, our brands are protected, and our business risks are effectively managed. Their expertise in managing high-stakes legal matters, regulatory compliance, brand protection, and risk mitigation is essential to our success and sustainability.

We are dedicated to fostering an inclusive and diverse workplace where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. We believe that empowering women is not only a moral imperative but also a critical driver of economic growth and societal progress. Our commitment to gender equality is reflected in our ongoing efforts to promote women's economic empowerment and create a supportive environment for their professional and personal development.

We recognize the importance of transitioning to a circular economy. This approach not only addresses environmental challenges but also fosters sustainable economic growth. By rethinking how we design, use, and dispose of products, we can significantly reduce waste, lower emissions, and create new job opportunities.

In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, the ability to harness advanced analytics and data-driven insights is crucial for maximizing marketing return on investment (ROI). As businesses strive to create more precise, audience-centric campaigns, the adoption of sophisticated data analytics tools and techniques becomes increasingly important.
