The modern administration of in companies is based on communication in any of its forms. And the ability to communicate effectively must be one of the main skills of intermediate driving, as this is a fundamental prerequisite of good leadership.

Communication is essential to achieve the necessary coordination of efforts in order to achieve the objectives pursued by the organization and its members.

Since then, the NestlĂ© story begins. From 1866 Henri, began experimenting with various combinations of cow milks, wheat and sugar to develop a product called “NestlĂ© Milk Wheat Flour”, capable of replacing breast milk. In 1867 NestlĂ© saved his first life, his milk powder allowed to feed a premature baby whose mother was sick. That day, the worlds number one food giant was formally born. While this was happening in Switzerland, in Cham, Germany, brothers Charles and George
The origins of NestlĂ©: “The largest Food and Beverage Company in the World” go back to the year 1866 when two competing companies were founded that expanded their business throughout Europe and the United States. In 1867 Charles (American Consul in Switzerland) and George Page, two brothers from Lee County, Illinois, (United States), established the Anglo Swiss Condensed Milk Company factory, in Cham (Switzerland). In 1868 the industrial production of the formula created by Henri, today known as Cerelac, was initiated. This year Daniel Peter began seven years of work perfecting the process of making milk chocolate. NestlĂ© was the key help that Peter needed to solve the problem of removing all the water from the milk added to his chocolate and prevent the product from developing mold. Henri NestlĂ© retired in 1875 and the Company under new owners, retained his name as “SociĂ©tĂ© Farine LactĂ©e Henri NestlĂ©”. In 1877, Anglo Swiss added baby milk-based foods to its products. In 1878 the NestlĂ© Company incorporated condensed milk into its portfolios causing rivalry between the two companies. And in 1879 NestlĂ© merged with the inventor of milk chocolate, Daniel Peter. (MartĂnez, 2017)At the beginning of the year 1900 the company operated factories in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany and Spain. Factories were also established in Latin America, the first plant was established in Ararás Brasil, later expanding throughout the continent. In 1904 the gentlemen: François-Louis Cailler, Charles AmĂ©dĂ©e Kohler, Daniel Peter and Henri NestlĂ©, participated in the creation and development of the Swiss chocolate, commercializing the first NestlĂ© chocolate milk. In 1905 the Companies, Farine LactĂ©e Henri NestlĂ© and Anglo Swiss Condensed Milk Company merged to become: “NestlĂ© & Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk Company” name that was conserved until 1947.The new chocolate and condensed milk were the most distinctive products of the company, the Anglo contributed to the new company three factories in Switzerland, four in England and two in Norway. NestlĂ©, for its part, completed the new assets with four plants in Switzerland, Norway, the United States, Great Britain, Germany and Spain. In 1938 a new product called Nescafe was taken which ironically, the war helped with its introduction to the market, eight years of research result in a soluble powder, which became a basic beverage that is quickly recognized worldwide as coffee preferred by the American Armed Forces during World War II. In the year of 1947 it was merged with Alimentana, the Maggi Company that had discovered mixtures for soups and related food products, created in 1884. Since 1996, several international acquisitions have been made, but undoubtedly the strongest have been: Purina in 2002 and Gerber in 2007.
