Forbes America's Most Innovative Leader: Bezos and Musk are tied for first

Tencent Technology News According to Forbes magazine website, American business school professors Jeff Dyer and Nathan Furr and consultant Curtis Lefrandt Collaboration, measured the four basic leadership qualities of the top founders and CEOs of the United States, and launched the list of 100 innovators in the top US companies, including Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and Tees Lay CEO Elon Musk tied for the top spot.

The four basic leadership qualities measured by these researchers include: innovation media reputation, social relationships, value creation records, and investor expectations for value creation.

They ranked the most innovative leaders with a rigorous attitude. These leaders include the founders or CEOs of the following companies (or CEOs who have become chairman of the board in the past year):

(A) US companies with a market capitalization of more than $10 billion,

(B) The 50 largest US private companies listed in the past five years, and

(C) Ranked among the top 100 US companies on Forbes’ most innovative growth company rankings.

When the company’s co-founders also held top management positions, Forbes gave them a second place (for example, Alphabet/Google co-founder is CEO Larry Page and President Sergey Brin) . Forbes believes that it is appropriate to give these people a ranking because they score the same at the company level.

In this list, the founders or CEOs of large technology companies occupy the top ten positions on the list. Among them, Amazon founder Bezos and Tesla CEO Musk tied for first place.

Bezos is 55 years old. In 1994, he founded the e-commerce giant Amazon in the garage of Seattle. Today, he owns nearly 12% of the company’s shares. In 2018, Amazon’s revenue was $230 billion, and net profit reached a record $10 billion, up from $3 billion in the previous year.

The 48-year-old Musk is committed to revolutionizing the transportation of the Earth and space. He founded the car manufacturer Tesla Motors in 2003 and sold more than 240,000 all-electric vehicles worldwide in 2018. His rocket company SpaceX is worth more than $20 billion.

Bezos and Musk have different leadership styles, but they have one thing in common: they are forward-thinking thinkers with innovative capital

In the rankings, the top 10 other technology company leaders include:
