In this episode, recorded at the #NBF2025, I sit down with Annika Essén-Suuronen, Transformation Lead & DSO Coach at Bayer, to explore one of the boldest corporate transformations happening today. With more than 20 years at Bayer, Annika is now at the forefront of driving the company’s shift from a traditional management system to what they call #DynamicSharedOwnership. Dynamic Shared Ownership is about unleashing the full potential of both the organization and its people to create value for all stakeholders. It reimagines the system by prioritizing mission and outcomes over conflicting KPIs, fostering self-directed teams within a flat structure and encouraging co-creation across networks of teams rather than silos. Together we discuss what it means to redesign leadership and decision-making at scale, how Bayer is creating faster learning cycles and a people-centric culture, and what lessons can be drawn from this ambitious journey. Annika also shares her deeply personal story of transformation, which powerfully aligns with the values behind this change. This conversation is both candid and inspiring, offering valuable insights on trust, courage and the human side of organizational transformation. Listen and enjoy … 🎧
