Stakeholder engagement - A Kellogg's case study
Introduction to Organisation:
The Kellogg Company is the world’s leading producer of cereals. For more than 100 years,
Kellogg’s has been a leader in health and nutrition through providing consumers with a wide
variety of food products. Kellogg’s market leading position and reputation is built on its
commitment to ethical business practices and its values-based culture. Business values
identify the beliefs that the company holds to be the most important. These values then guide
decision making and shape the way the organisation behaves. For Kellogg’s, these are
referred to as K-Values. Kellogg’s K-Values guide the way the company interacts with all of
its stakeholders. Stakeholders are individuals, groups and organisations that have an interest
in the decisions a company makes and the products that it produces. They also, depending on
their power, affect how businesses perform. Kellogg’s products are manufactured in 18

T-1.8.1_v3
countries and are sold in more than 180 countries. This means Kellogg’s has to manage its
relationships with a variety of stakeholders around the world. The diagram identifies
Kellogg’s key stakeholder groups.
Kellogg’s long-term business plans, known as strategies, focus on engaging with its
stakeholders to ensure their needs are being met. For Kellogg’s, this means ensuring the
highest ethical standards and sustainable business practices. Kellogg’s has a Global Code of
Ethics governing how it deals with
stakeholders across the world. A sustainable business is one which focuses on minimising
any negative impact to the environment to ensure future generations can prosper. Kellogg’s
vision and core purpose outline what the company wants to achieve. They guide the
organisation’s decision-making processes to help meet the expectations of its stakeholders.
Kellogg’s vision, which was refreshed in 2012, sets out the company’s main aim which is ‘To
enrich and delight the world through foods and brands that matter.'
Kellogg’s Global Employer Brand:
Kellogg’s invests heavily in its employees and future employees. Kellogg’s global employer
brand communicates the K-Values and the wide range of benefits that Kellogg’s employees
receive. Kellogg’s refreshed company vision and purpose were a direct result of feedback
from employees. A company’s vision and values must be ‘lived’ by its employees for them to
incorporate them into their decisions and actions. Kellogg’s seeks to manage its employer
brand in the same way that it manages its product brands. Just as the company uses market
research to identify what its consumers want, it uses employee research to find out the needs
and opinions of its employees through, for example, an employee survey. The 2012 survey
involved 20,000 employees across the globe (with a 75% response rate). This information

T-1.8.1_v3
was used to improve processes to engage employees. For example, employees requested to be
able to communicate more openly so Kellogg’s created a feedback training programme for all
employees.
Conclusion
Kellogg’s business strategy is stakeholder-focused. The company’s decisions and actions are
all made with the best interest of its stakeholders at the heart. Engaging with both internal and
external stakeholders creates two-way communication that brings benefits to both Kellogg’s
and to each stakeholder group. Although Kellogg’s engagement initiatives have huge cost
implications for the company, they yield huge benefits to the communities and stakeholders
as well as to Kellogg’s in order to demonstrate that it’s a responsible business.
Kellogg’s uses its size as a force for good. Its stakeholder engagement focuses on supporting
its CSR activity, such as its breakfast clubs and support for food banks around the world.
These initiatives support the company’s vision and, through living the K-Values, enable its
employees to continue to improve the lives of its global stakeholders.

CONTEXT, PROBLEM SCENARIO & REQUIREMENTS:
For this assessment you may select a project/program of the organisation from the case study
or a project/program of an organisation of your choice. The hypothetical situation is that you
work for that organisation and you are required to prepare a plan for stakeholder engagement
which will highlight to areas which are effective communication with stakeholders and ways
of facilitating commitments made to stakeholders. For the plan you are required to research
about the industry, examine and analyse the possible stakeholders for the business, make
effective stakeholder engagement and interaction plan. You are expected to do your own
external secondary research as you will need to identify the internal and external
stakeholders, identify engagement models and their benefits and application.
You will be required to use the template/structure as provided below. Marking criteria and
weights for each section are also provided within the structure.
**Note: This is an individual assessment and student's assessment will be graded as
"Not Yet Competent" if found similar to any other assessment.
