“Chief executive officer” is the most powerful and sought-after title in business. A CEO is a quintessential transformative leader, who is strategic, pragmatic, and invests in the development of their people, their employees, and their customers. They steer the organization toward success. They oversee overall operations, execute strategic initiatives, allocate resources, and lead the executive team. Their role demands exceptional leadership, sharp decision-making, and a clear vision to drive the company forward. They must possess strong communication skills, inspire teams, and cultivate a thriving corporate culture.

According to McKinsey’s Report, “The mindsets and practices of excellent CEOs” six core elements define the CEO’s title: setting the strategy, aligning the organization, leading the top team, working with the board, being the face of the company to external stakeholders, and managing one’s own time and energy.

In order to recognize these brains that run the organization, All India Business and Community Foundation (AIBCF), proudly presents the “CEO of the Year Award” to the most deserving individual in the branding industry. We believe, even the best of the best needs encouragement. With this accolade, we believe that Leadership matters—and no leader is more important than the leader of leaders. We recognize the executives who are appointed to the top job and can boost their leadership capabilities by understanding and adopting the mindsets and practices that define CEO excellence.
