Spikes Excitement Talk #122 with Nuno Alexandre

In this episode, Gordon Euchler sits down with Nuno Alexandre, Global Condiments Head of Category & Commercial Strategy at Unilever, to explore what truly drives excitement in modern marketing — from building category growth to evolving heritage brands for a changing world.

Nuno shares his journey — from KPMG to Coca-Cola and now Unilever — reflecting on what it means to bridge brand ambition with commercial reality. He discusses how great marketing starts with a deep understanding of shoppers and customers, and how that understanding fuels growth not just for companies, but for entire categories.

Together, they unpack how Unilever builds category growth that benefits both brand and retailer, the art of translating brand strategy into commercial activation, the balance between global consistency and local relevance, why AI and personalization are reshaping the future of food and shopper behavior and what makes truly great brands feel “human” — and why we invite them to our dinner tables.

Nuno also reflects on leadership lessons from inspiring managers, how to lead from behind, and why empathy and simplicity remain timeless in business.

Listen now to discover why the future of marketing lies at the intersection of purpose, personalization, and people.
