STELLAR SHOWING: MOST VALUABLE CEOS

The past 36 months have been particularly demanding for everyone, including corporations. Nonetheless, amidst these challenging times, many accounts of success, growth and recovery have emerged. These businesses have stood out thanks to stable leadership, a sound strategy, sufficient financial resources and cost optimisation. This special issue on Most Valuable CEOs highlights a select few of these accomplishments. It is important to note that these are not rankings, but rather a compilation of success stories from companies and their leaders in various categories, filtered and selected by our knowledge partner TechSci Research.

This exercise is also an extension of sorts of the previous two special issues, the BW 500 (issue dated February 11, 2023) and the Most Respected Companies (issue dated April 8, 2023) that we had brought out with the help of our knowledge partner TechSci Research.

For all practical purposes, TechSci Research started out by analysing and shortlisting companies based on certain parameters and filters that were applied to bring out the list for BW500 and the MRC (please refer to the detailed research methodology). Categorisation of companies based on their total income/turnover helped us focus on some of the consistent performers across each of the categories.

It must be made clear at the outset that the names profiled and presented in the following pages do not allude to any kind of ranking. Those who have been highlighted are merely an editorial selection out of the pool of companies shortlisted by TechSci Research. There are many more in each of the categories that we could not showcase due to space constraints. The timeframe for the analysis of company finances were chosen by our knowledge partner factoring in the financial years of 2018-19, 2019-20, 2020-21 and 2021-22.
