Harvard Business Review
compiled its annual list of the best-performing CEOs in the world. NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang has been on this list several times now but this time he's ranked second-best in the world!
This consistency is the result not just of an unwavering leadership style but of the way HBR measures performance. In a business world that often seems obsessed with today’s stock price and this quarter’s numbers, our ranking takes the long view: It’s based primarily on financial returns over each CEO’s entire tenure—and because these CEOs have been successful, many have enjoyed a long run in the job. (CEOs on the list have been in the position for an average of 16 years, versus an average in 2017 of 7.2 years for S&P 500 CEOs.) To calculate the final rankings, we also factor in each company’s rating on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues.
