Debra A. Cafaro Named to Top 100 Best Performing CEOs by Harvard Business Review for Sixth Consecutive Year

2019 OCT 31 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Daily Real Estate News -- “This recognition directly reflects the commitment, expertise and integrity of the entire Ventas team, who are focused on working together to continue to drive performance,” said Cafaro. “I am especially pleased that our outstanding financial results and our increased ESG investments have been recognized, as we believe they are mutually reinforcing to sustain and grow the value of our enterprise.”

The 2019 HBR ranking measured 883 CEOs from 876 companies across 29 countries. Taking a long view of business performance, the methodology is primarily based on financial metrics that include the overall shareholder return and increase in market capitalization for the CEO’s entire tenure which makes up 70 percent of the final ranking. To calculate the final position, non-financial performance is evaluated through two ESG metrics. This year, HBR increased the weight given to non-financial measures to 30%, up from 20%, to reflect the rapidly-growing focus on non-bottom-line metrics.
