Each year Finance Monthly magazine sets out to identify and honour the most respected companies and their ambitious, forward thinking CEOs. The awards recognize and celebrate the success, innovation and strategic vision of men and women leading businesses across a wide variety of sectors and industries worldwide.
The publication undertakes a rigorous research process to establish management best practice and critical success factors, drawing on the views of thousands of shareholders, including employees, investors, analysts, and media professionals. Nominees are judged on their achievement in areas such as growth in revenue and/or profit, expansion into new markets, realizing new products and services, or implementing a new business model or strategy. This process allows the readers of Finance Monthly and the public to nominate, and for the publication to validate nominations based on internal research, public endorsement, media coverage and number of votes.
Finance Monthly’s Editor in Chief, Mark Palmer comments: “It is vital for every business striving for success to have a leader whose diligence, innovative thinking and ingenuity inspire their team to demonstrate the same qualities and achieve excellence. We are happy that all of the individuals that are listed within Finance Monthly’s 2016 CEO Awards are leaders who aspire to these qualities and whose enthusiasm and hard work help their companies accomplish their goals.”
A special edition of the magazine looks in detail at the winners of this year’s awards and the companies they serve. On leading the endeavour at d&b, Amnon says: “Our ultimate goal is to create the best sound possible. The people at d&b achieve this with great passion, no compromise to quality and a sense of family, or ‘Wir-Gefühl’ as we say in German. This combination represents an attitude and a lifestyle that’s more than just performing a job. I am very proud to lead this fantastic team.”
