Social CEOs

We are very happy to announce the winners of the Social CEOs awards. Find out who won at the awards last night, and what we can all learn from them in my new piece for Civil Society.

And you can see all the winners at a glance in our handy infographic below.  I’m so proud of them all!

Here’s all the key data from 2018’s winners:

  • 132 nominations were received in total (up from 101 last year)
  • 15 of the top 25 are new entrants who have not won awards before, up from 14 last year
  • 14 of the top 25 are women, continuing last year’s trend of more women than men amongst the top CEOs. In addition, all 6 of the individual awards were won by women.
  • Only 1 charity CEO in this year’s top 30 has won every year (down from 2 last year) indicating how leaders face stiff competition to keep a place in the list each year
