CHIEF EXECUTIVE RESEARCH

Actionable Business Intelligence for CEOs

In addition to the proprietary research used for Chief Executive magazine editorial features, including the CEO Confidence Index, annual rankings of the Best & Worst States for Business and the CEO & Senior Executive Compensation Report for Private Companies, we conduct survey-based research throughout the year to gather firsthand accounts from CEOs on top-of-mind issues.

FEATURED ANNUAL REPORT

CEO & Senior Executive Compensation Report for Private Companies

With data collected from thousands of U.S. companies, the CEO & Senior Executive Compensation Report for Private Companies showcases more than 140,000 data points – including values by industry, ownership type and company size. The report will help you to structure the right combination of salary, bonus, benefits, perks and equity incentives to attract top talent and retain the talent you have. The report provides information (both real dollar values and percentage of total compensation) on base salary, bonus and equity rewards, benefits and perquisites.

Future Proofing Your Workforce

To address the mammoth challenges of post-pandemic turnover and a talent pipeline shortage, healthcare leaders need a new approach to workforce planning that considers talent needs both in the short-term as well as over the next five to 10 years. At a recent roundtable co-sponsored by Chief Executive and Pearl Meyer, industry
executives discussed the best way to develop that strategy.

Competing on Compensation as a Private Company

Compared with their public company peers, private company CEOs enjoy far greater flexibility in executive compensation program design. At the same time, freedom from restrictive regulations and disclosure requirements comes with a flip side: lack of access to the power of publicly traded equity-based pay as a recruitment and retention tool.

Innovating for a World in Transition

In a period of unprecedented change, CEOs share outlooks for the future and strategies for positioning their companies to thrive. Geopolitical instability, supply chain disruption, cyber incidents, climate change, resource exhaustion and new ways of working are among the myriad threats pressuring today’s business leaders to adapt and evolve in ways and at a pace never imagined. 

Get Faster: How to Be Deal Ready in 2023

The mergers-and-acquisitions industry should expect a busier 2023 than conventional wisdom might suggest with the prospect of an economic downturn, and this means companies on both sides of the equation shouldn’t just sit back on their haunches. In this whitepaper from Chief Executive and Datasite learn how to navigate a busier than expected M&A market.
