T ofan Yudianto is Head of Logistics , Asia , for consumer goods company PZ Cussons . Since being brought into the company in 2015 , he has relished the opportunity to transform the logistics strategy in an Asian setting . “ PZ Cussons logistics business was operating in-house , but then they wanted to focus on their core business and work with external business partners for logistics . That ’ s where me and my team ’ s journey started - creating and articulating that long term strategy .”
Yudianto identifies PZ Cussons ’ “ can-do values ” as a key driver of its success , alongside the raft of watchwords such values inspire . “ The question is whether we can stand for courage , accountability , networking , drive and also oneness . That last word , that last value of oneness is very important . I know this is implemented within PZ Cussons because even as this organisation is growing , people are remaining together .”
