Organizational culture of Coca-Cola LLC

Characteristics of the enterprise

The development of the Coca-Cola company began in the last century. The story of the world's most famous soft drink began in the backyard of Atlanta pharmacist John Pemberton. On May 8, 1886, he made syrup in a three-legged pot, which he took in a jug to Jacobs, the largest pharmacy in the city. On the same day, the first portions of syrup, at five cents per glass, were sold to visitors by V.V. Boriskin. Improvement organizational culture company as one of the factors in increasing the efficiency of its work / V.V. Boriskin, V.U. Sidorova // Management of corporate culture. - 2010. - No. 2. - P. 126-131.. Soon, sellers at Jacobs began mixing syrup with carbonated water, and that’s how the Coca-Cola drink came into being.

Over such a long period, many changes have occurred, both with the company and with global business as a whole. To create an idea of ​​the Coca-Cola company and its history, we will note the main dates and events associated with them, which represent turning points for the company, which step by step brought the business closer to success. The Coca-Cola Company Corporation with initial capital$100,000 was created in the state of Georgia (USA) by A. Candler, D. S. Candler, F. Robinson and others in 1892. The Coca-Cola trademark, which has been used since 1886, was registered in the US Patent Office on January 31 1893. The first bottling plant for the drink appeared in 1899 in the city of Chattapuga. The number of such factories after 20 years exceeded 1000. In 1926, an international branch of the company was created, which gave rise to the bottling of Coca-Cola in many countries around the world. Since 1928, Coca-Cola has been a partner of the Olympic Games. And in 1977, the well-known branded bottle of Coca-Cola was registered as a trademark in the US Patent Office.

Today, Coca-Cola has the third largest stock capitalization in the world, which is $147 billion on the New York Stock Exchange, which is 3.3 times higher than that of General Motors. At the same time, Coca-Cola ranks only 190th among global corporations in terms of annual turnover, which allows Wall Street to call it an “efficient profit-making machine.”

The appearance of the Coca-Cola company in Russia occurred in 1980, when the Olympic Games were held in Moscow. Coca-Cola has acted as a sponsor of the Olympic Games since the late 1920s. But the Moscow Games were held on the territory of an ideological enemy, so the Coca-Cola company did not want to exhibit products under its main brand and offered the orange drink Fanta at the Moscow Olympics. After this, Fanta began to be produced at some Soviet enterprises.

Coca-Cola began supplying a wider range of products to Russia in 1989, and a year later decided to develop in Russia own production. In January 1992, the official representative office of the company in Russia, Coca-Cola Refreshments Moscow, was formed.

Now the company has factories in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Krasnodar, Vladivostok, Novosibirsk, Volzhsky, etc. It is bottled at 30 factories - bottlers in Russia and others former republics USSR. The system employs more than 3,000 people and 80% of the materials used are locally produced. Under the contract with Coca-Cola, bottlers are allowed to bottle and sell the company's soft drinks within certain territorial boundaries and under conditions that meet the required uniform quality standards.

In Volzhsky there is a plant and a central office that manages the distribution of products in the Volgograd, Saratov and Astrakhan regions. In each of these regional centers there are offices and warehouses finished products. The number of employees in the branch is almost 300 people. Middle age employees are 28-30 years old. The plant produces 5 types of products, bottled in plastic bottles various types. Products produced in Volzhsky are delivered for sale to Volgograd, Saratov, Astrakhan, Rostov region and Krasnodar region. The Volgograd branch of the Coca-Cola company takes an active part in all events held in the region, provides sponsorship children's preschool institutions and helps in organizing sporting events.

The sales organization technology in the company is based mainly on the work of the sales department, since the main functions of working with clients are performed by the sales department, this is the largest department of the company. Sales department employees comply with marketing strategy companies provide merchandising at retail outlets. To reveal the topic of this work, we should take a closer look at the organization of the work of the sales department and its employees, its place in common system company sales.

The sales department is managed by a sales manager, his functions include generating sales reports, monitoring pricing policy, coordinating the work of the department with other departments of the company, in particular with the marketing department and logistics department Demidova E. V. Organizational culture as a factor in increasing the effectiveness of training / / Alma mater: Bulletin of Higher School. - 2010. - N 8. - P. 53-59..

The main competitor of the Coca-Cola enterprise in the Volgograd region, as well as in all other markets, is the PepsiCo corporation, which offers similar products (Pepsi-Cola water, Pepsi-Cola Light, Mirinda, sevennap"). However, in almost all markets around the world, Coca-Cola has overtaken PepsiCo in terms of sales. This circumstance is greatly facilitated by the fact that Coca-Cola is the exclusive supplier of carbonated drinks to McDonald's restaurants. In addition, Coca-Cola has a more aggressive advertising policy.

The Coca-Cola company produces about 200 types of drinks. But three of them account for 80% of total global sales - Coca-Cola, Fanta and Sprite. About 70 varieties of Fanta are produced in the world with a wide variety of flavors (orange, lemon, tangerine, grapefruit, kiwi, melon, watermelon, and so on). There are 8 types of Coca-Cola.

The Coca-Cola Hellenic company is a full-cycle company, so workers are constantly needed - both in production and in the back office. Today, 2,300 people work in the Moscow region. There are 3 factories located here that serve 10 constituent entities of the Russian Federation. In total there are 13,000 employees in Russia.

Veronika Fuflygina, Head of Recruitment Group, Coca-Cola Hellenic in the Moscow region

Specifics of personnel selection in the Moscow region

For the convenience of personnel selection, all departments are divided into several blocks: production and logistics, commercial function and support function.

The standard recruitment process includes the following steps:

Searching for candidates using various resources

Telephone interview

Personal meeting of HR with the candidate

Meeting of final candidates with the hiring manager

Recruitment by block

Production staff

At the selection production personnel There are some peculiarities that must be taken into account when posting vacancies on various resources. In recruiting this category of personnel, Coca-Cola Hellenic mainly uses print media, which allows it to attract the largest number of applicants for positions of shift operators and other jobs.

This category of applicants often does not have a resume, so all candidates who come for an interview fill out an application form. After this, the candidate is interviewed by a recruiter and a hiring manager (most often the shift supervisor).

Next, the candidate is sent directly to production to understand the specifics of the work and see the plant from the inside. Maximum time is devoted to this stage. The future employee gets the opportunity to ask all the questions that interest him.



Commercial block

Since candidates for positions in the company’s commercial structures use the Internet and apply for positions through the network, the HR service posts vacancies on various sources.

After the interview, work with applicants for the position sales representative is carried out using a special program “Ideal Sales Representative”, which includes additional stages of several types of testing. Tests are used to identify characteristics inherent in the applicant.

1. Questionnaire for testing career anchors. Coca-Cola Hellenic identifies 8 career anchors; their analysis allows you to find out the motivational factors that are important for the candidate and correlate them with the company’s capabilities.

2. Test for understanding the specifics of working with clients. It helps to find out whether a future employee of the company can meet high standards working with clients who are accepted by Coca-Cola. In addition, the HR department has the opportunity to plan training already at this stage, taking into account the knowledge gaps of each specific candidate.

3. Test of mathematical abilities. Helps test how well a sales representative can count without a calculator.

The next stage is an interview with the head of a group of sales representatives in a real market. After the interview with the supervisor, the candidate gets acquainted with the features of the position, real work together with a sales representative. Based on the results of the day, the company can draw conclusions about whether the candidate is suitable for the position, whether he correctly assesses the risks, and whether he is really interested in the position.

Office block

In the Moscow region, Coca-Cola Hellenic has a fairly large back office that supports all processes. Selection for office positions is standard: candidate responses on Internet resources or the corporate website are analyzed, interviews are conducted with HR and the hiring manager, and a hiring decision is made.

An interesting fact is that the company does not use social media in personnel selection (the Neo HR editors have no data on the volume of staff turnover and the number of candidates attracted).


Adaptation

The company has developed various adaptation programs for all employees.

  • E- learning(for all categories of employees)

A new employee, upon starting work, gets acquainted with an introductory electronic course, which contains information about the history of the company and general information.

  • Inductionplan(for managers)

It sets out plans for the new employee over time probationary period, evaluation criteria, all mentors and trainers who can support him on issues related to any processes are noted.

  • Mentoring (for production and logistics employees)

The new employee does not work independently for a month. Each of his shifts takes place together with a mentor. Based on the results of this period, the company concludes how ready he is for independent work.

  • Trainings during the probationary period (for employees of the commercial department)

Sales representatives are constantly away from the office, so they need outside support. Two trainings that the company conducts in the first three months of employees’ work are aimed at this:

Training that introduces newcomers to the specifics of the work of their department;

Introductory sales training on company standards and the basics of customer service.

Future Manager Training Program - Hellenic Management Trainee Program

IN Coca-Cola company Hellenic has developed a two-year internship program to form a talent pool. It allows yesterday's student to go from trainee manager to supervisor in just two years and gain enormous project experience.

Program structure

In the first year, the company is actively developing the business acumen of young employees. They immerse themselves in the specifics of the business, learn different functions, learn to work with projects and implement an independent business project.

The second year of the program is devoted to the development of functional skills and the formation of employee management skills.

After the end of the program, the company continues to monitor the development of employees for three years: what accelerated development programs they participate in, what projects they carry out. During this period, program participants occupy leadership positions at the MoM (manager of managers) level.

Over the three years since 2012, 133 trainee managers have been accepted into the program, of which 33% have already been promoted to positions.

Strategicdirections Hellenic Management Trainee Program (HMTP)

The basis of the program is key employees in key positions. It is from trainee managers that company leaders emerge. The program allows you to move away from the strategy of “buying talent” to the strategy of “cultivating talent.” In addition, HMTP allows you to ensure a high quality level of continuity in all functions of the company.

At Coca-Cola Hellenic, 67% of employees are representatives of generation Y. The company conducted a study that showed that this generation considers it important to receive clear goals from management (58%), strives for leadership in a project (51%), wants to constantly learn ( 64%) and develop their entrepreneurial potential (76%).

The training program for future managers combines answers to their expectations. The company offers "gamers" individual plan development for two years, the opportunity to participate in cross-functional projects and conduct a business project, as well as participation in trainings and master classes from the company’s top management up to the level of the CEO.

This generation is extremely demanding in terms of communication. The expectations of employees from different years of recruitment are collected through various types of conference calls.

Confrontation

As part of its work with the employer brand, Coca-Cola Hellenic plans to implement one of the initiatives - the “Confrontation” offline program. The main idea of ​​the program is to bring Generation Y and Generation X closer together.

The collected analytics showed that interaction between generations in the company is not always successful. It is difficult for older generation managers to work with yesterday's students who want everything at once. As part of the “Confrontation,” questions will be asked to representatives of different generations; the answers to them will allow us to find common ground and main differences, which will allow us to periodically return to these points and work with them.

Introduction.

Organizations create structures to ensure coordination and control of the activities of their departments and employees. The structures of organizations differ from each other in complexity, formalization, and the relationship between centralization and decentralization. Structural relationships in organizations are the focus of attention of many researchers and managers. Therefore, a modern manager must know the main principles and methods of building organizational structures in order to then apply the acquired tools in practice and help their company function successfully in the market.

This work will analyze the organizational structure of the Coca-Cola Refreshments Moscow company. Based on certain theoretical research, the type of structure of a given company, its main characteristics, advantages and disadvantages will be considered. However, first we will talk about the history and development of the company, as well as the main business processes.

Information about the organization.

Scope of activity.

Closed joint stock company Coca-Cola Refreshments Moscow, a branch of Coca-Cola HBC Eurasia LLC, produces high-quality soft drinks in Moscow, the Moscow region and Central Russia. Currently, the organization employs more than 2,000 people. The company produces and sells such well-known drinks as Coca-Cola, Coca-Cola Light, Sprite, Fanta, BonAqua drinking water, Nestea iced tea, and Powerade sports drink.

Coca-Cola Refreshments Moscow is certified for compliance with international quality standards ISO 9001 and environmental standards ISO 14001 in Moscow, which indicates that the quality system at the enterprise is capable of ensuring high quality products for consumers.

The Coca-Cola HBC Eurasia branch in Moscow is an active participant in projects in the field of environmental protection, education, sports and culture. The company's charitable foundation provides financial support to orphanages, schools and other organizations in need on an ongoing basis. Thus, it can be argued that this enterprise is a socially responsible organization.

Company history.

For the first time, Coca-Cola products entered the USSR during preparations for the 1980 Moscow Olympics. In 1988, during the period of democratization, regular supplies of the drink from abroad began. In 1991, “against the backdrop of the growing popularity of the drink, the Coca-Cola company decided to open its own representative office in Moscow” 1.

In November 1991, by decision of the Coca-Cola Company, Coca-Cola Refreshments Moscow CJSC was formed, which consisted entirely of foreign capital. In December 1992, construction of the first soft drink production plant in Russia began in Moscow. At the end of April 1994, the first bottling line was opened. “In 2002, distribution centers were opened in Yaroslavl, Vladimir, Ryazan, Ivanovo and Kostroma. And in 2008, the Moscow division included a branch in the village of Davydovskoye” 2.

Basic business processes.

This figure shows the main business processes of the Coca-Cola Refreshments Moscow organization. First, the company receives raw materials and supplies from suppliers. For example, the unique concentrate, which is the main competitive advantage of Coca-Cola, is imported from a plant in Ireland, and our organization’s plastic bottles and caps are supplied by the Plastpoliten plant. Then, in the production department, well-known drinks are produced using automated lines. “The total productivity of the enterprise lines is more than 150,000 packages per day” 3. Further, through the efforts of sales and marketing managers, the company’s products reach wholesale and retail outlets through distributors and sales representatives. It should be noted that the most important business process for the company’s employees is advertising, promotion and sale of products to the market.

Analysis of the organization's structure.

The organizational structure of the Coca-Cola Refreshments Moscow company is functional. The formal structure of the organization is built on the principles of attracting highly qualified personnel who have a narrow specialization to management. This structure is characterized by a high degree of vertical differentiation. In the company under consideration, centralization of power prevails, but in the sales and marketing departments active work in teams and delegation of authority are practiced. A special feature of this organization is the high level of formalization between departments and employees. All employees must comply with the rules, norms and regulations of the organizational culture prescribed by the company's management.

The organizational structure of the company is a hierarchy consisting of four levels:

    highest level of management (CEO)

    middle level of management (heads of departments)

    lower level of management (department managers, group heads, chief accountant)

    level of performers (ordinary employees)

Thus, we can say that the organization applies the principle of scalar structure of the organization, that is, the principle of “vertical division of managerial labor in the sphere of coordination of heterogeneous specialized activities” 4. Therefore, the chief executive officer has great power and high status, since the organization has a high degree of vertical differentiation.

A high degree of horizontal division of labor gives rise to the process of departmentalization. Departmentalization is “aimed at differentiating functions” 5 between individual structural units. Since this organization has certain tasks and goals that require specialized knowledge and skills, the company has seven divisions. Thus, it can be assumed that the overall strategy of the organization will be distributed among the departments and executed effectively with the help of highly qualified employees.

Henry Mintzberg developed a typology of organizational structures known in science. The scientist identified five types of structures:

    Simple structure

    Mechanistic bureaucracy

    Professional bureaucracy

    Divisional form

    Adhocracy

Mintzberg also argued that many mixed and intermediate structures can be found in real life. This typology was aimed at identifying the specifics of the activities of senior management in a particular organization. The structure of the company in question, according to Mintzberg's classification, is most similar to a mechanistic bureaucracy, the main characteristics of which are “formalization of behavior, vertical and horizontal specialization, usually functional grouping, large operating units, vertical centralization and limited horizontal decentralization, action planning” 6.

The main advantages of the functional organizational structure of the Coca-Cola Refreshments Moscow company are:

    Compliance with Henri Fayol's principle of unity of command

    Performing tasks requiring special knowledge and skills

    Reducing duplication of effort and consumption material resources in functional areas" 7

    Efficiency in a stable external environment

Main disadvantages:

    Divergence of goals between departments

    Too long chain of commands from the manager to the direct executor

    It takes a lot of time and resources to solve complex cross-functional problems

    Not effective in a rapidly changing external environment

I believe that currently the structure of the company corresponds to the main elements of the internal and external environment of the organization, ensuring the implementation of the strategy and increasing the well-being of employees, so I do not want to give specific recommendations for a positive change in the structure of this company. “Quality” reorganization is a very complex and complex process that requires high skill of managers and considerable costs. As a result, an incorrect change in the organizational structure can cause unjustified costs and even the loss of positions gained in the market.

Conclusion.

In conclusion, organizational structure is one of the central concepts of organization theory, which is closely related to strategy, control, decision-making and communication. The structure of the organization represents the “skeleton” of the entire management system of the company, aimed at achieving short-term and long-term goals and ensuring basic intra-organizational processes.

Thus, the organizational structure of the Coca-Cola Refreshments Moscow company was analyzed, the type of structure and its main characteristics were determined. The pros and cons of this structure were also discussed.
