About the project

Background and delivery

Background
A company strategy takes months to develop and ties up enormous resources. It decides tomorrow's success, but only if it does not stay on paper. To turn strategy into action, it has to reach everyone: the board, senior managers, team leads and production staff, all with the same message.
Production
The Swiss Academy team (Simon Hofer and Kai Dahlhaus) worked with the Utz Group leadership (Marc Schürmann, CEO; Oliver Flühler; Nadine Worel) to reduce the strategy to one central message: the One Single Idea. They then developed the communication strategy, defined the channels and built a story from that idea for each audience and each channel. The CEO's address was refined and recorded as a video at SA Studios.
Result
A CEO video address on Strategy 2026–2029: one message that reaches every employee in exactly the same form.
