The organization’s global ranking of the best chief executives for 2019 measured more than 1,200 CEOs across 96 countries. The methodology was primarily based on the financial returns for the CEO’s entire tenure, which made up 60 percent of the final ranking.
The additional 40 percent of a CEO’s ranking factored in a company’s track record on environmental, governance, and social issues, as well as market shares, change of market capitalization, and brand’s newsworthiness and impact.
