Stengel joined Procter & Gamble (P&G) in September 1983. [5] While there, he earned increasing responsibility in P&G’s developing markets, cosmetic, food, and baby-care businesses. Prior to his promotion to global marketing officer, Stengel held the following positions at P&G: [5]

The Jim Stengel Company

After Procter & Gamble, Stengel set out on a new mission to help grow businesses through a focus on higher ideals. He became president and CEO of the Jim Stengel Company, LLC. [2]

The Jim Stengel Company is both a think tank and a consultancy, conducting proprietary research, generating thought leadership, and applying a new ideals-driven framework to drive business growth in today's global economy. The company’s mission is to inspire global business leaders to achieve higher performance by rethinking their ideal and all behaviors emanating from that ideal. Stengel and his team are currently working with clients in tech, fashion, retail, food service, automotive, and wine/spirits. [2]

Books

In December 2011, Jim Stengel published his first book, Grow: How Ideals Power Growth and Profit at the World’s Greatest Companies, with Crown Publishing Group. A global analysis of a 10-year growth study involving 50,000 brands was conducted in partnership with Millward Brown Optimor and the UCLA Anderson School of Management. [3] Based on this study, Jim Stengel’s book shows how the world’s 50 best businesses—The Stengel 50—have a cause-and-effect relationship between financial performance and their ability to connect with fundamental human emotions, hopes, values, and greater purposes.

Stengel published his second book with co-author Tom Post in September 2017. Unleashing the Innovators: How Mature Companies Find New Life With Startups, was published by Crown Publishing Group. The book offers valuable insight from the front lines of many Fortune 500's biggest corporations, including GE, Wells Fargo, IBM, Target, Motorola Solutions, and Toyota, all of which are learning from their alliances with startups. To support these anecdotal conclusions, Stengel commissioned a global study - the first of its kind - of 200 established companies and startups from OgilvyRED to pinpoint the opportunities, choke points, and emerging trends from these partnerships.
