Onze leidinggevende positie

‘Ik wil onze managers, lokale marktteams en business units de leiding geven en laten doen wat het beste voor Philips is. Een tijdige beslissing kan goed of fout zijn; een te late beslissing is altijd fout. Door onze marktteams de middelen te geven om te winnen, kunnen we succesvolle investeringen blijven doen. Innovatie blijft een hoeksteen van onze strategie. Investeren in innovatie is onderdeel van investeren in groei. Maar we moeten inzetten op basis van een gedegen begrip van lokale markten en klanten.’
