Fortune’s World's Most Admired Companies recognises the companies with the strongest corporate reputation, based on executive, director, and analyst ratings across criteria such as innovation, management quality, social responsibility, and talent attraction. It is run by Fortune in partnership with Korn Ferry, with credibility signaled by a long-running annual methodology and a top-half-of-industry threshold for inclusion. Companies pursue it for brand prestige, stakeholder trust, and the marketing value of being named among Fortune’s flagship corporate-reputation leaders.
