Generational change: GIM with new management
04.01.2024
The Gesellschaft für Innovative Marktforschung (GIM) has reorganised its management team: Dr Jörg Munkes and Dr Stephan Telschow will now manage the market research and consulting institute, which has been active internationally since 1987, in tandem.
Jörg Munkes has been with GIM since 2003 and has primarily shaped the quantitative research area. He is also active as a speaker and author, specialising in target groups, brands and corporate culture. He previously completed a doctorate in social and personality psychology.
Stephan Telschow has headed the Berlin office of GIM since 2008. In addition to his role as Head of Division, he was a long-standing member of the Management Board as Corporate Director. His thematic focus is on shopper and retail research. He holds a doctorate in sociology.
Jörg Munkes and Stephan Telschow were appointed to the Management Board back in 2019 and have since systematically expanded Strategic Business Development in particular. Jörg Munkes is now also responsible for Human Resources and Marketing & Communications. Stephan Telschow is now also in charge of Operations/IT and Finance.
Market research and consulting: further utilising synergies
"We are delighted with the trust placed in us by our customers, employees and shareholders - and we want to continue GIM's almost 40-year success story in the field of modern, innovative market research and consulting by joining forces across all locations," say Jörg Munkes and Stephan Telschow.
Stephan Teuber is leaving the GIM Management Board after 26 formative years. However, he will continue to actively support GIM, for which he has worked for more than 30 years, in a responsible role for the China location, as a representative in industry associations such as the ADM trade association and BVM professional association, and as a shareholder and member of the GIM Advisory Board.
"We would like to thank Mr Teuber very much for his achievements and commitment as Managing Director. Our clients have always benefited in particular from his maximum focus on quality and methodological integrity - combined with sound cross-industry consulting expertise," said Jörg Munkes and Stephan Telschow.
