Wichita Power 100 / Most Influential Business Leaders

Overview

The Wichita Power 100 (also styled as the Power 100: Most Influential Business Leaders) is an editorial list produced by the Wichita Business Journal spotlighting the most influential business, civic, and community leaders in the Wichita area. It is a curated, journalist-driven recognition rather than a formal awards competition, and honorees are selected based on the publication’s reporting and regional impact rather than self-nominations. Organizations and leaders value inclusion as a local credibility signal that reflects influence, leadership, and visibility in the Wichita business community.

• Typically holds a senior leadership, ownership, or elected role (e.g., CEO, owner, top executive, or key public official)
• Based in or having substantial, ongoing influence in the Wichita, Kansas region
