Yara International ASA is a global company specializing in nitrogen chemistry. It develops concepts for sustainable agriculture, industry and environmental protection. The industrial products and application concepts reduce emissions, improve air quality and support safe and efficient operational processes.
In order to maintain competitiveness and fulfil the Agenda 2020 (doubling turnover), the management planned a major reorganization of the "Environmental Solutions" business line within Europe at the end of 2015.
The interim manager immediately analysed the current status of the requirements and tasks in great detail and drew up the process and project plan. In addition to planning and conducting a management workshop to create the new organization, this also included the corresponding sustainable steps for implementing the new organization. This included the information letter to the European Works Council as well as the coordination of the information duties of the individual regional works council committees. He was also responsible for compiling an employee change list and the corresponding action list in order to establish the employees in the new organization as quickly as possible.
Very rapid progress
After preliminary discussions with the managers, the implementation progressed so quickly that the new organization could be presented and introduced within 2 months. The interim manager also created the communication plan for management and executives, ensuring the implementation and sustainability of the project. This project was mainly conducted in the English language.
