16. What do our clients say? “ In my opinion, there is no better training program than ‘Value Creation’ in the Nestlé world — and I’m prepared to bet a cup of Nescafé, a giant scoop of Dreyer’s ice cream or a four-finger KitKat that the participants share my view.” Angus Freathy, Nestlé

17. A Case Study: Borg Warner Following a management buyout, the team at BorgWarner needed to focus on cash flow. “ We surveyed employees to learn what they needed most, and they told us—overwhelmingly—that they wanted more financial expertise,” recalls Skip Cline (VP of Acquisition Coordination and Special Projects) “The s olution was Corporate ProfitAbility®.” Twelve years later, with over 50 ProfitAbility® programs under its belt and more than 900 employees trained, BorgWarner runs ProfitAbility® o n three continents in six languages . Cline estimates the company spends about 15% of its annual training budget on ProfitAbility’s offerings and that his team has been “very pleased” with the return on investment. Through years of playing the business simulation, BorgWarner has developed some best practices. The controllers discovered, for example, that they could easily run it at every organisational level, so long as players work in different units and have similar levels of financial knowledge. “ The simulations can get cutthroat, but people walk away with ideas they can readily take back to their jobs.”

18. A Case Study: Nestlé Concepts such as Shareholder Value and Economic Profit were central to the then CFO’s pioneering strategy, but were not commonly understood by managers making important decisions every day. Nestlé and ProfitAbility® worked on customizing a generic ProfitAbility® simulation, to match the specific nuances of Nestlé’s activity within the food industry. The new program was named ‘Value Creation’. Project sponsor, Angus Freathy, says: “The value comes from the fact that the model is sufficiently realistic that we can draw valuable parallels with Nestlé ‘real life’—without being so complex that participants need years of experience to understand it and appreciate its relevance. “… when we talk about Economic Profit in a cross-discipline, cross-continent meeting, everyone who has experienced ‘Value Creation’ has the same, accurate understanding of what we mean. “ In my opinion, there is no better training program than ‘ Value Creation’ in the Nestlé world—and I’m prepared to bet a cup of Nescafé, a giant scoop of Dreyer’s ice cream or a four-finger KitKat that the participants share my view.”
