Our Executive Judges have been working tirelessly over the last few weeks, and Jim Stengel is no exception.
Jim is the former Global CMO of Procter & Gamble and one of the most respected voices in marketing. After diving into categories across the board, he had one piece of advice for anyone considering judging: do it. Because it gets you out of your own world and into someone else's, and it elevates your standards.
We couldn't agree more. Thank you, Jim!

Hi everyone, it's Jim Stangel. I've been up like 55 hours straight. I'm well hydrated, not much sleep. Judging 13,000 entries into the 2026 webbies. Actually, I'm an executive judge. This year I've judged a bunch of things. The best of the best I've judged in about 5 or 6 categories. Saw some amazing work. You know. It's good to be a judge. If you're asked to do it, do it because you know what it does. It gets you out of your own little world and into someone else's world, and it elevates your standards. So go webbies. I really enjoyed it. Great organization and a great institution.
