Danone North America

Dedicated to bringing health through food to as many people as possible, Danone is a leading global food company built on four business lines: Essential Dairy and Plant-Based products, Early Life Nutrition, Waters and Medical Nutrition.

Through its mission and dual commitment to business success and social progress, the company aims to build a healthier future, thanks to better health, better lives, and a better world, for all its stakeholders - its 100,000 employees, consumers, customers, suppliers, shareholders and all the communities with which it engages.

Danone hands-on, informal management style is an invitation for every employee to act as a leader: share what you’re passionate about, aim for breakthrough results and involve colleagues and external partners to make them come true! Strongly anchored in the values, this set of leadership attitudes, known as CODES, embodies the qualities we seek to support Danone’s development.

CODES: A unique style of leadership

Our values are the beliefs we hold internally and our CODES behaviours are how we demonstrate and bring these values to life. CODES shapes all of our people strategies, from recruiting for CODES behaviours to designing our learning programme to develop and grow CODES leaders. Creates, Opens, Drives, Empowers and Self-aware: these are the key attributes of a leader in Danone.
