P&G Chairman steps down

08.12.2009
Consumer products giant Procter & Gamble (P&G) has announced that its Chairman AG Lafley will set down from 1 January and will be replaced by Robert McDonald, who is currently the company’s President and CEO.

Lafley (pictured), who is 62, will officially retire from P&G on 22 February 2009.

Lafley became President and CEO of P&G in June 2000 and was succeeded in this role by McDonald in July of this year.

In a statement, P&G said Lafley had continued to serve as Chairman of the board to support the management transition.               

Lafley said he was retiring with confidence in P&G’s management team. The company delivered a strong July - September quarter and is expecting sequential improvement over the balance of the fiscal year, he said.

P&G owns household brands such as Pampers, Pantene, Mach3, Bounty, Dawn, Pringles, Lenor, Crest, Oral-B, Duracell, Olay, Head & Shoulders and Gillette. The company employs 135,000 people working in some 80 countries worldwide.
