When customers continually demand hyper-local relevance, is the concept of a "global brand" an asset or a liability? Agility requires not just the ability to pivot, but the intelligence to know *when* and *how* to pivot based on real-time customer understanding. This means moving beyond global assumptions and empowering local teams with the data to make smarter, faster decisions. Today, we are here at Treasure Data's CDP World in Las Vegas, and we're going to talk about one of the biggest challenges facing any multinational company: how to maintain brand consistency and operational efficiency on a global scale, while delivering the locally relevant, personalized experiences that actually build relationships with customers. It's a classic battle between standardization and personalization, and the key to winning often lies in how you unify and activate your data.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Daniel Damasio, Senior CRM Analyst at Nestle.

In Leaders Getting Coffee episode 52, our guest is one of the original partners of advertising agency Colenso and the founder of the Dressmart Outlet stores and man’s brand, Rodd & Gunn, Gary Gwynne. Gary enjoyed the freedom of life as an only child in pre-sixties Otago. That freedom created a mindset that believed anything was possible and authority was to be avoided. Fresh out of Otago Boys High School and with an Otago University bachelor’s degree in his toolkit, a young Gwynne headed for the up-and-coming business of advertising, with a goffer’s job organised through the contacts of his father, who was a radio announcer at the time. Three short years at the so-called “university of marketing”, Nestle, followed. But it wasn’t long before he was asked to return to ad- land, with a company named Colenso. There he stayed for sixteen years, becoming a partner and ultimately joint Managing Director alongside the legendary Roger McDonnell. But he left all that and mid-career, became an entrepreneur. During the Leaders Getting Coffee podcast with Bruce Cotterill, we hear of his aspirations and adventures into a wide range of businesses including Men’s apparel, land subdivision and commercial property development. Gary Gwynne speaks with great affection for the advertising industry and the colleagues he left. But his subsequent story is highly relatable to current or aspiring entrepreneurs. He highlights the challenges of getting established, the need for the right partners, and the importance of brands. A keen fisherman and hunter, it was only a matter of time before Rodd and Gunn was born as a part of the Outdoor Heritage brand he built. And as Dressmart celebrates 30 years since its launch, we hear what prompted the arrival of outlet stores to New Zealand in the aftermath of a harsh recession. Recently New Zealand lost another entrepreneur in Sir Michael Hill, and having worked with him for more than 20 years, we are treated to a wonderful tribute to Sir Michael from our guest. Gary Gwynne’s story is one of a good Kiwi bloke who had a crack and succeeded. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We're about a week away from Halloween, and what could be scarier than the technologies that are disrupting manufacturing—artificial intelligence and connected-worker technologies. The 4th Annual Connected Worker Manufacturing summit in the Chicago suburbs this month gathered tech leaders from dozens of large manufacturers to discuss the impacts of data tools, wearable technology, tablets and other connected devices. What does that have to do with Halloween? Well, there were a lot of food people there, including digital transformation executives at Hershey and Nestle, and we spoke to them about their efforts. Participating on this podcast are: Robert Schoenberger, editor-in-chief at IndustryWeek Logan McNear, digital manufacturing program lead for The Hershey Company's Lean Production System Mike Brauckman, head of focused improvement for Nestle

In this solo-hosted Ag Tribes Report by Vance Crowe, Vance covers four major headlines shaping agriculture and adjacent markets after the scheduled guest drops out during harvest. The report dives into the unusual coalition of farmers and food companies backing state-level animal welfare laws like California's Prop 12, unpacks the DOJ's massive seizure tied to a Southeast Asian “pig butchering” crypto scam and what it could signal for government Bitcoin accumulations, assesses Nestlé's 16,000-job global restructuring and what it may mean for supply chains and food inflation, and reacts to prosecutors seeking a prison term and restitution in the $4 million crop insurance fraud case involving Steve McBee—plus why crackdowns on fraud matter for producers who rely on transfer programs.In the Bitcoin land price segment, Vance explains recent volatility, why 24/7 liquidity makes Bitcoin the shock absorber for weekend macro news, and why dips remain opportunities compared with gold's run-up. Vance also shares a reflection from an impromptu conversation with a Vietnamese Uber driver on managing “energy ripples” in relationships, and explores what genuine respect looks like in the Worthy Adversary segment—including how naming respect can transform high-stakes conversations.

Tonight on The Huddle, Phil O'Reilly from Iron Duke Partners and former head of Health NZ, Rob Campbell, joined in on a discussion about the following issues of the day - and more! Nestle has quit a major alliance to reduce methane emissions from dairy suppliers. Does this mean New Zealand needs to rethink its approach to climate change, like ACT suggested? The Māori Party announced their big reset ahead of the 2026 election - hours after Speaker Gerry Brownlee had to suspend the House again after a haka broke out. What do we make of all this? Are we surprised to learn that Hamas and Israel agreed on the first phase of a peace deal in Gaza? Do we need to give Donald Trump some credit? There's growing drugs to decriminalise drugs in New Zealand - do we think this is a good idea? LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Global dairy giant Nestle has withdrawn from the Dairy Methane Action Alliance, prompting speculation. This follows other companies backing out of climate initiatives, with the Net Zero Banking Alliance confirming it was set to shut down earlier in the week. Agribusiness expert Dr Jacqueline Rowarth says it's likely the Alliance didn't move fast enough for Nestle, and they're taking their support elsewhere. "The Alliance has not worked as well as they thought - and remember, Nestle's done some really good work around the world with regenerative agriculture, with cropping... so they're putting their money where they're actually getting action."

On the latest episode of The Big Impression, Nestlé's Antonia Farquhar talks about striking unexpected partnerships, like KitKat with Formula One, to keep the 90-year-old chocolate brand fresh. It's part of a larger strategy to connect with new audiences through live cultural moments.  Episode TranscriptPlease note, this transcript  may contain minor inconsistencies compared to the episode audio.Damian Fowler (00:00):I'm Damian Fowler.Ilyse Liffreing (00:01):And I'm Ilyse Liffreing.Damian Fowler (00:02):And welcome to this edition of The Big Impression.Ilyse Liffreing (00:09):Today we're spotlighting one of the most ambitious shifts happening in brand marketing, Nestle's global push to redefine performance in a world where reach, relevance and streaming. Now go hand in hand.Damian Fowler (00:21):Our guest is Antonia Farquhar, global head of Media and partnerships at Nestle. Antonia has been at the forefront of Nestle's pivot towards connected TV and long-term brand building across categories, continents, and campaigns.Ilyse Liffreing (00:35):From Formula One to Gen Z coffee drinkers, she's helping Nestle rethink what media performance really means in a CTV first world and how brands can use new tools and data to close the loop between awareness and action.Damian Fowler (00:50):Let's get into it.Ilyse Liffreing (00:52):Antonia. So I understand that you guys are sponsoring Kit Kat's Formula One. I'm very curious to learn more about that.Antonia Farquhar (01:03):Yeah, one of the reasons that the Kit Kat team put that sponsorship together was to really, they've got an existing brand strategy, have a break, have a Kit Kat, right?Damian Fowler (01:14):Everybody loves that.Antonia Farquhar (01:14):Which is decades and decades old. I think it's way over 75 years old, that consistency of brand message is there and it's really part of the foundations of that brand. But the break is more important than ever in a busy world that we all live in today. And so it was really putting the brand at the heart of also everybody needs a break. How can we capitalize on that? And F1 has gone from being very much, I think known as a petrol head sports, to really bringing in different audiences, so younger, more diverse across the genders and it's global and Kit Kat is a major global brand of ours. So it was an excellent opportunity to really bring together the brand and I guess wouldn't have been an expected place. And then to capitalize on that, on giving people a better break as well.Ilyse Liffreing (02:08):Can you give me a little bit of background about why sports and why Formula One?Antonia Farquhar (02:15):I think for me, sports is one of the last truly appointment of view. Live viewing. You do not want to miss the race. You do not want to miss the final, you do not. There's so many of those moments now where it is also, people are talking about it, who won, how's the lineup, where is it? Et cetera. So it's part of cultural conversations and really the opportunity for our brands is to connect into what's happening, making sure we are injecting our brands with freshness and bringing in that new conversations. And I think sponsorship like the F1, and we also did Coffee Mate and the Super Bowl early this year, again, to really capitalize on where's the real excitement happening and how do we inject our brands in a distinct way. Obviously being true to their brand codes to new and different audiences,Damian Fowler (03:13):A thought a 30,000 foot view, you look across the landscaping like, well, these are the moments where we need to show upAntonia Farquhar (03:20):For sure. I mean, one of the role within the team is to really inspire and provoke and drive that distinctiveness for our brands. We are privileged to have a lot of huge global brands, but we're also over 150 years old as a company. So it's how do you inject that freshness? How do you stand out in a increasingly fragmented media landscape? So I think this is where we want brands to really lean in and as I said, it is holding on what is your brand territory? Where is that strategic foundations that hold true and need to be consistent, but how do you punch and become a little bit more maybe unexpected? Unexpected places is clearly one of the themes that I'm seeing in the industry lately that it drives that attention.Damian Fowler (04:20):When you talk about unexpected places. Could you say a bit more about that?Antonia Farquhar (04:26):I mean, we all know we are living in a very attention. Yeah, the second you wake up the phones, the amount of apps on your phones, it's increasingly hard and I think it'll continue to get harder to really drive connectivity to brands with people. And so I think doing something a little bit different and perhaps wouldn't, it's not predictable for that brand to be in that particular place or speaking in a different environment. I think that's an opportunity going forward. And I think when you look at a lot of the award-winning work globally this year, that's one theme that I really see coming through and I kind of love it. It's bringing a bit of fresh, it's bringing an edge, and I think it's pushing people and brand experiences to a different level to where they were before. SoIlyse Liffreing (05:18):Yeah,Antonia Farquhar (05:19):I'm enjoyingIlyse Liffreing (05:19):It and it's fun.Antonia Farquhar (05:20):Exactly. It's fun. And I feel like it's almost, there's different areas where different brands have different tone of voice, and so it's working out really what is that? And then perhaps tapping into a community really engaged in a particular community and how can you link your brand and derive some insights from that behavior to speak in that way.Ilyse Liffreing (05:45):Certainly. Now, I know you were talking about using sports to tap into that audience around appointment tv. Are there other channels that you guys are particularly leaned into at this time? Are there ones that you're experimenting with? How is that going?Antonia Farquhar (06:03):Yeah, so I think the more you know about marketing science, and I'm quite a nerd when it comes to marketing science, but the more channels you are in, the higher your effectiveness of course. So again, it's about how do we do fewer, bigger, better campaigns.(06:21):And media activations to really get that consistent cut through. But in terms of channels, when you look at where the growth is at the moment, retail, digital media is growing at an increasingly fast rate year on year. But connected TV is another one that I am really excited to discover the future of that particular medium. I mean, even in the last few years, the amount of ads that we serve on connected TV devices is more than doubled. The adoption rate is huge and it's from where you'd expect the more advanced markets where most of the streaming services for the US and the uk, but also in markets like India, the Philippines, Australia, the viewing habits are really shifting. I think COVID drove that acceleration and we all spent a lot more time at home and people probably spent money on better TVs because there wasn't as much to do outside. And so yeah, that's one I'm excited about.Ilyse Liffreing (07:29):And I would imagine for a brand like Nestle that the intersection of CTV and retail media and e-commerce is really exciting now that you can practically shop through your TV too.Antonia Farquhar (07:43):Yes. Yeah, it is. I think it's a great opportunity. I love the fact that that medium is back in the living room but advanced and it's now how do you make sure you are able to do a brand building experience and build an emotional connection, but also give people the prompt to buy perhaps through a QR code or through the retailer websites. And obviously the audiences piece is super attractive as well when you're really trying to nudge people to close the sale. So yeah, I think it's very exciting. It's amazing.Damian Fowler (08:23):I was interested in what you said just then about fewer, bigger, better, which is easy to say, but perhaps not easy to execute. What kind of mindset shifts were needed to get your teams to rally behind that concept and how does it kind of show up?Antonia Farquhar (08:41):Yeah, fewer, bigger, better is a phrase I feel like I say every single day in the office. We started on a journey a few years ago and it's all about the focus. So focusing on the brands, ensuring they're well fed with the right amount of investment because we know that's one of the key factors of marketing effectiveness. But so from where do we invest, how many briefs, et cetera, but actually also through to our agency partners as well. So we've done a big transformation across lots of parts of the globe to really consolidate our agency model, which has been a mindset shift to your point around if we scale and standardize, then we free up more time and brainpower to really create outstanding media activations and planning. And so we are in the transformation area of that at the moment. But yeah, it's bringing a lot of great benefits, good talent, better work, and a more we can scale faster. We are a huge organization. We operate in 188 markets, and so therefore scaling information and driving that best practice is going to go so much faster through the consolidation.Ilyse Liffreing (10:13):When it comes to CTV, are there specific brands that Nestle owns that kind of fit that target audience a little better?Antonia Farquhar (10:24):I think it's a great question. I think it fits a lot of our brands, but to your point, it depends on where that behavior is happening. Often it can be younger audiences, but we are seeing it growing to really, really broad audiences as well. And especially the move we've had in the industry from really subscription to the ad model piece allows that larger access as well. What I also am interested in this space is the type of content as well. So there's obviously a huge diversity in terms of super high production and Netflix style content all the way through to the UGC or that type of content as well. So again, going back to the point earlier about different audiences and their interests, to me that brings a really thoughtful opportunity about are there different types of content that makes sense for different brands, to your point, versus doing a one size fits all. So I think that's super interesting as we see the, well, the more and more content that comes out and the consumption increase as well.Damian Fowler (11:37):And what's also interesting I guess, is the global differences. I mean, I know the APAC market is very mobile first and different markets, more mature markets like the US CTV is strong. I wonder from your perspective, where do you see the big growth opportunities around the world from a media perspective?Antonia Farquhar (12:02):Like you say in Asia, we see huge growth of shopping online. It's seamless and you can really go from discovering a product to buying it within 10 seconds. And so that is challenging some of the norms about the amount of time but that people need. So yeah, again, it depends on the category and the purchase cycle there, but I think that's a great opportunity. Things like WhatsApp I think will be increasingly utilized by brands as a way, a more seamless way of connecting with shoppers as well. But I think social retail media and connected TV are the three areas that we really focus on, but then the important ask within that is how do we do it in a way that is quality, culturally relevant with the right context, so we are able to cut through in an effective way.Damian Fowler (13:07):So you're working closely with different agencies in each of those distinct markets.Antonia Farquhar (13:12):Yeah, exactly. To find the right opportunity and what are the local opportunities there too. AreDamian Fowler (13:20):There any surprises from your point of view? And I just want to say I grew up in York and it was the home of Roundtree Macintosh, which where Kit Kat started. And then over the years we've seen Kit Kat show up in different places, like in Japan, I think there's a version with green tea or green. So that's an interesting kind of wayIlyse Liffreing (13:41):A lot to collect them from around the world.Damian Fowler (13:43):And I think it is remarkable how the brand sort of KitKat brand has scaled across the world, but it's still kind true to that chocolate bar that I knew in York when I used to wake up. You could smell the cocoa. So are you kind of thinking about things like that?Antonia Farquhar (14:02):I think for me and with the brand team, it's about staying true to those foundations. Have a break, have a kick at, and that core bar that you grew up smelling,(14:16):But how can you flex into those local regions and opportunities, flavors tastes? And I think that's exciting opportunity. And obviously Japan, in fact, yesterday someone was saying about how they flew to Japan to buy the different types of KitKats. Clearly a lot of people get excited about that, but we also have factories all over the world. So it allows us to diversify and able to deliver to some of the nature, some of the local taste preferences. But for me it's about staying core to that brand really, because the foundation behind the piece. But yeah, you can also have fun with it with different flavor rotations too. Yeah.Ilyse Liffreing (15:04):Is there any advice that you would give marketers looking to make the same shift as you guys are doing from short term return on investment to long-term brand building?Damian Fowler (15:16):Fewer, bigger, better, right? Fewer, bigger better. Is that what you say?Antonia Farquhar (15:19):A rally cry. I'm going to have it on a T-shirt. Exactly. But no, you should sell those too. Exactly. So I think it's about focus, right? And it's about really focusing on where are the areas of the greatest opportunity. I'm also a big believer in having data points at hand. So whenever we are challenged around some of the decisions that we are aiming to drive across the business, having that the audience has actually grown by 50, 60, 70 or whatever percent, and it's no longer just teams, it's a very broad audience and our products are super broad and it allows us to connect with people daily, weekly. Again, it's that consistent piece that I think is really attractive there.Damian Fowler (16:12):What are you obsessed with figuring out right now?Antonia Farquhar (16:16):So many, many things at the moment. I just thinking about the conversation that we were having about quality of media and connected tv, I would love more understanding on the impact of ad loads. As I said, it does vary hugely across the different providers from six minutes an hour to, I dunno, probably 35 minutes an hour. And again, I'm a big believer and you get what you pay for. So if it is a higher cost, then the effectiveness is hopefully and likely higher. But again, proving the house I think would be really interesting as well and what effect, what it has on the effectiveness of that.Ilyse Liffreing (16:59):Yeah. So what would you say is missing from the CTV marketplace as it stands today?Antonia Farquhar (17:04):I would love more unification to manage, this is a very technical media answer, but to manage reach and frequency more consistently. I think that's been a bit of a downfall of the growth of things like BVO and CTV was that ability to effectively manage and not feel like you're wasting or annoying people with too many ads. So the unification of that across many devices would be my dream to be able to do. And it was never possible to unlock on linear TV for very obvious reasons, but as we are in a much more digitized world, it does feel possible. I'm not sure we'll get there. But yeah, any unification that a lot of the DSPs offer to me, they're incredibly valuable to ensure we're being more efficient and effective with our investment.Ilyse Liffreing (17:59):Very cool. Now I actually do have a follow up to what you said before about effective reach and cost. Do you feel like there, do you feel like most marketers still have the mindset that they want to buy in at the cheapest they can, no matter the effectiveness?Antonia Farquhar (18:21):Or is that changing? Do you think it's changing? I think it is changing. I do. I'm a believer that the more great effective research and the more case studies and that sort of part you read, it's not about that to me. These are soft metrics in terms of did the campaign deliver what you signed for on your media plan? But really we are here to drive business and brands and whether it's cross between equity and sales and category growth. So to me, you have to come back to, is it driving business results, making sure you're able to measure and manage those effectively because yeah, if you can't measure it, you can't manage it and you can't go back and say, well, we reached this many people, but did they convert? Did they do anything? Did they feel differently about your brands? These are the questions I'm really interested to answer.Damian Fowler (19:15):I guess final question, what's one of your favorite Nestle ad campaigns? Past or present?Antonia Farquhar (19:21):This is a tough question to answer because as my role is global, the brands are equal. I have to say some of my favorite, or I think it's timeless, is the George Clooney and espresso pieces as well. The art direction there I always think is beautiful. And I'm a big Nespresso fan, I have to say from a personal perspective. And also in Australia and New Zealand and Asia, there's a brand called Milo, and that is all about sport being a great way of bringing together people to learn and play and have fun. And they've done some fantastic ads throughout the time, really showing that resilience and the grit as well that it comes to what sport can teach you to do. So that's some of my favorite ads that we've done.Damian Fowler (20:29):And that's it for this edition of The Big Impression.Ilyse Liffreing (20:31):This show is produced by Molten Hart. Our theme is by love and caliber, and our associate producer isAntonia Farquhar (20:37):Sydney Cairns.Damian Fowler (20:38):And remember,Antonia Farquhar (20:39):Yeah, fewer, bigger, better is a phrase I feel like I say every single day.Damian Fowler (20:43):I'm DamianAntonia Farquhar (20:44):And I'm Ilyse,Damian Fowler (20:45):And we'll see you next time.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Your favorite “clean” health foods might not be as independent as you think. In this episode of Wholistic Living, we uncover how brands like Simple Mills, Siete, Vital Proteins, RXBAR, Poppi, and Garden of Life—once founded on mission and integrity—were bought out by corporate giants like Nestlé, Kellogg's, and Ferrero. We'll explore why this wave of acquisitions is happening, what it means for ingredients, accessibility, and prices, and whether consolidation in the food industry is ultimately good or bad for consumers. From protein bars to gut health sodas to even your morning cereal, the same few corporations are quietly taking control of our food system. Tune in to learn how to spot when “clean branding” is really just marketing, why ingredient changes can happen after a buyout, and how to keep your health in your own hands by making conscious choices.Equip Foods Grass-fed beef protein - Code: MARLAWant to work with me? email me to health@holisticspring.comINSTA: @wholistichomeopath

Swiss food giant Nestlé's chairman Paul Bulcke steps down after almost 10 years at the helm.

Send us a textWhat if your great-grandfather's formula from 1927 turned out to be exactly what today's sustainability movement is searching for? Tiffany Huey never planned to become an entrepreneur, but after 25 years climbing the corporate ladder at companies like Starbucks, PepsiCo, and Nestle, she found herself drawn back to her family's legacy: Snowshoe Leather Care.When COVID hit and corporate America wanted her back in Seattle, Tiffany made a life-changing decision. She would revitalize the leather care business her family had maintained as a side hustle for generations. Now working from a barn workshop in Bend, Oregon, she hand-pours each tin using the original equipment and the exact same three-ingredient formula her great-grandfather created nearly a century ago.This episode explores the fascinating intersection of heritage craftsmanship and modern sustainability. As Tiffany explains, "There's this whole concept of upkeep culture and thrifting... thinking about how to buy higher-quality things and take good care of them." It's this cultural shift that makes Snowshoe suddenly relevant to a new generation, while still maintaining its devoted following among ranchers, saddle makers, and leatherworkers who've sworn by it for decades.The heart of this story lies in the voices of those who've built and preserved this legacy. We hear from Tiffany's father about the company's early days, her brother-in-law who kept the business alive when no one else could, and most memorably, from Richard Bryant, an elderly Texas rancher whose emotional testimonial about his lifetime using Snowshoe becomes the episode's most powerful moment.Through Tiffany's journey, we discover how entrepreneurship can honor the past while embracing the future, and how sometimes the most innovative act is preserving something of true value. Whether you're fascinated by family businesses, sustainability, or the courage it takes to leave corporate comfort for entrepreneurial uncertainty, this story will inspire you to look at legacy in a whole new light.The Circling Podcast is proud to be in partnership with Bend Magazine.

"Nestlé's values and governance are strong foundations of our company."Freixe, a company veteran, was appointed last year to replace CEO Mark Schneider as the maker of Toll House cookies and Nespresso coffee struggled with slowing sales. The Swiss company tapped Philipp Navratil, the head of Nestlé's Nespresso division, to succeed Freixe.Earlier this year, department store chain Kohl's fired CEO Ashley Buchanan after an investigation found he directed the company to enter a multi-million-dollar agreement with a group that included a personal contact.Nestle: -21% gender influence gap; led by:Paul Bulcke 20%Mark Schneider 17%Renato Fassbind 11% Pablo Isla Alvarez de Tejera 10%Patrick Aebischer 10%Nestlé Fires CEO After Pushing Cost-Cutting Plan That Included Charging for Office CoffeeExecutive Pushed Out Amid Backlash to Marketing Campaign That Accidentally Insulted All of FranceTop Executive Removed Amid Fallout From Supply Chain “Efficiency” That Turned Out to Be Child LaborNestlé Fires CEO After Boardroom Dispute Over Aggressive Cost-Cutting PlanWhich is the real headline about sharks going woke?“Climate change could be causing sharks to develop a taste for kale”“Climate change could be causing sharks to lose interest in humans”“Climate change could be causing sharks to starve because they forgot how to hunt”“Climate change could be causing sharks to develop social anxiety around prey”Climate change could be causing sharks to lose their biteWhich headline is real?Delta Air Lines Boss Issues Apology After Taking First-Class Seat From Child PassengerPolish CEO Piotr Szczerek issues apology for stealing Kamil Majchzrak's hat from US Open fanPiotr Szczerek, founder of paving company Drog-Bruk, has apologised for stealing Kamil Majchrzak's cap from the young fan it was intended for at the US Open.Footage of the Polish CEO ripping the cap out of the boy's hand went viral over the weekend, as did tone-deaf statements attributed to Szczerek that he says were fake."I take full responsibility for my extremely poor judgment and hurtful actions. It was never my intent to steal away a prized memento from the young fan. I became caught up in the heat of the moment and the joy of the victory, and I believed Majchrzak was handing a hat to me to give to my sons, who had previously asked for autographs.“For years, my wife and I have been involved in supporting children and young athletes, but this incident has shown me that a moment of inattention can undo years of work and support. It is a painful but necessary lesson in humility.“Going forward, I will engage even more actively in initiatives that support children and youth, and I will take actions against violence and hate. I believe that only through actions can I rebuild the trust I have lost.”Yeti Coolers Boss Issues Apology for Being Spotted Using an Igloo at Company PicnicCrocs CFO Issues Apology After Referring to Product Line as “Ugly But Profitable”Beyond Meat CEO Apologizes After Being Seen Eating a CheeseburgerMore What Has Been Showing Up in Random Workplace TestsMore Fentanyl Shows Up in Random Workplace TestsThe positive rate for urine tests indicating the presence of the synthetic opioid fentanyl was 1.13% in 2024.
