3M Leadership

Of all the pathways to growth, investing in our people is most important.

The premise is simple - if your people grow, your company will grow. The key: linking growth in individuals to those things that unlock energy and activities that our customers value.

Clearly, 3M's first chairman of the board, William L. McKnight, was a unique leader…and 3M has had outstanding leaders at all levels of the company ever since.

Leadership development remains at the top of the company's agenda.

Our Chairman and CEO is George W.Buckley. Find out more about our CEO and Corporate Officers (US, English).
