Employee Experience and Engagement

On stage at UNLEASH World 2024 in Paris, PepsiCo Europe’s CPO Dannii Portsmouth shared why the $91.5 billion food and beverage giant is committed to social impact.

In an exclusive video interview with UNLEASH’s Chief Reporter, Allie Nawrat, Portsmouth dives into why this is so important to PepsiCo as an employer.

PepsiCo employs 40,000 people across Europe, and the food and drinks giant is very aware of the need to be “thoughtful about what does that person need as human being… not just as an employee?”

We all want to spend our time in a meaningful way”, and that means thinking about “why do people choose to work for PepsiCo?”

“Everybody’s free. They can make a different choice tomorrow”.

Therefore, Portsmouth advice to other HR leaders figuring out the business case around social impact is to ensure they don’t get complacent around employee experience.
