A PR Guy Is the Most Liked CEO in Advertising
Posted in: Uncategorized
Who is the most liked CEO in the ad world? It’s a PR executive, Richard Edelman, who handily trounced both Publicis CEO Maurice Levy and WPP’s Chief Executive Martin Sorrell.
That’s according to Owler, a crowdsourced business insights company that runs a National Likeability Study, conducted by polling its global database of 15 million companies and over 167,000 executives across a wide range of industries, such as artificial intelligence, food and beverage, finance and healthcare.
While hardly scientific –theoretically agency employees could flood the zone in support of their own CEO– the findings are stil interesting. Of the 25 industries Owler surveyed, CEOs in the marketing and creative agencies ranked No. 1 with an average score of 74.2 out of 100. (Owler said in a statement that means that CEOs at marketing and creative shops are very well-liked relative to executives in other industries.)
