Description:

Royal DSM is a dutch-based chemical company active in health, nutrition and materials. The DSM Leadership Model specifies the behaviour DSM expects from its leaders and people managers. The model provides a common vision and language for leadership at DSM.

This was included in the 2012 Annual Report and later on in all annual reports until 2020.

The DSM Leadership Model consists of five imperatives.

First, DSM expects its leaders to have:

• Insight - being a leader in DSM starts with having insight into oneself and others. DSM expects its leaders to recognize the strengths and the development areas of themselves and others by listening, asking questions, observing, and dealing with feedback. And then: learn and act accordingly.

Secondly, DSM expects its leaders to:

• Shape by setting the direction and targets based on vision, driven by external orientation and a view on competences and options. Use an entrepreneurial approach with passion and a sense of urgency and show a relentless drive for performance, continuous improvement, innovation and business growth.
• Connect internally and externally, forge collaboration whilst leveraging the benefits of ‘ONE DSM’ and build relationships based upon a genuine, authentic and motivational trust and interest in people, with respect and humility based on self- insights and a deep understanding of others.

Thirdly, DSM expect its leaders to:

• Develop themselves and others, recognize and take ownership for leadership and talent development and delivery, and maximize the power of inclusion and diversity to build high performance teams.
• Deliver against ambitious targets and commitments and take accountability for performance, empowering people to act with speed and agility. Celebrate and reward successes and learn openly from failures. Show a drive to win and be decisive.
