Onclusive's CEO Index
The CEO Index analyzes media coverage about the leaders of the US and Europe’s largest publicly listed companies
Media Performance of the World’s Top CEOs
Ever-increasing access to the CEOs behind the world’s biggest brands means that everything they say and how they behave not only defines the public’s perception of them, but also the reputations of the organizations they lead. And as corporate reputation is now a key driver of business performance, there’s plenty at stake for brands whose CEOs are consistently under the spotlight.
Our CEO Index analyses earned media coverage of today’s most recognized and scrutinized CEOs. In an instant, you can identify:
• Who’s gaining the highest volume of media coverage in each country and sector,
• What global themes each CEO is being associated with,
• The effectiveness of their earned media coverage/mentions by means of an average ‘impact score’.
This tells an interesting story of the global CEO landscape; identifying who’s gaining the most media coverage in each sector, market, on a global scale, and the relationship with business performance.
Inside the dashboard below, you can search five different categories including company name, CEO, sector, theme, and location across your chosen date range to see how different CEOs are performing and ranking.
You’ll also see news headlines, featuring the CEOs, in the scrolling tickertape at the top of the dashboard, which is automatically tailored to your search criteria.
