Colgate-Palmolive

Noel Wallace, CEO since 2019 and Chairman since 2020, is a long-tenured operator with deep global experience across Colgate’s regions and categories. CFO Stan Sutula brings financial discipline and technology transformation background.

The team credibly executed pricing, mix and productivity to restore margins, while sustaining heavy brand investment and making targeted strategic moves in pet nutrition. We also note active leadership development and a clear 2030 strategic framework, though this is not a founder-led company and insider ownership is low.

Overall management quality and execution track record are strong and shareholder aligned.
