100 outcomes-driven CEOs

HBR's 100 Best CEOs in the World are leaders who delivered "solid results over the long run." They were picked based on two pieces of performance data:
  1. Total shareholder return
  2. The overall increase in market cap.
HBR's methodology excludes stuff that other rankings use, such as reputation, popularity, and celeb status. It also excludes a few performance data such as sales and profitability because they differ by industry, and therefore make comparisons harder.
