DuPont Announces Major Corporate Split and Leadership Change

DuPont de Nemours, the storied American multinational chemical company founded in 1802, revealed plans to split into three publicly traded companies. This strategic move will see the electronics and water businesses spun off into independent, yet-to-be-named entities in a tax-free transaction for shareholders. The separation, expected to be finalized within 18 to 24 months, is contingent on board approval. Alongside this announcement, a leadership reshuffle was also disclosed: Lori Koch, currently the CFO, will assume the CEO position on June 1, while current CEO Ed Breen will transition to the role of executive chairman. Koch will continue as the CEO of the new DuPont following the completion of the spin-offs.

This breakup aligns with a broader trend among large multinational corporations, such as Johnson & Johnson, Kellogg, and General Electric, which have opted for similar splits to enhance agility and focus. Ed Breen emphasized that the division into three companies would unlock additional value for shareholders and customers, offering each entity the flexibility to pursue targeted growth strategies, including mergers and acquisitions. The new electronics company will specialize in semiconductor solutions and advanced electronics products, whereas the water company will become a comprehensive water solutions provider. The remaining divisions will stay under the DuPont umbrella, continuing the company’s legacy of innovation and growth.

What is imposter syndrome, and how can you overcome it?

Have you ever been plagued by doubts in a professional context? Perhaps you’ve wondered if you have the right skills to continue with your current role.

You may be surprised to realize that these self-doubts are extremely common. Imposter syndrome can be a genuine problem in the workforce, because it can prevent people from having the confidence to aim high, even when they have the right skills and competencies to progress in their careers.

Coined by psychologists Suzanna Imes and Pauline Rose Clance over 50 years ago, the term ‘imposter syndrome’ describes a phenomenon whereby you feel incompetent in your job role.

You may feel that you are a fraud and you’re waiting for someone to discover that you do not have the right skills for the job. Imposter syndrome is a combination of false beliefs, self-doubt, low confidence and feelings of inadequacy.
