Analogue productivity in a digital age with Unilever CEO Nicky Sparshott

Being a CEO is tough… Being CEO of two companies? That’s a whole different game. 

For Nicky Sparshott, CEO of Unilever ANZ and Global CEO of T2, the trick to staying on top of everything is sometimes as simple as a post-it note. 

She shares how she filters her priorities from a five-year horizon all the way down through yearly, quarterly, monthly and daily to-do lists. She also highlights the importance of blocking out time for deep thinking, the unexpected benefits of working with a global team, and some tricks for bringing levity into your business.
