The 14 Best-Performing CEOs In Biotech And Pharma

In Wednesday, the Harvard Business Review released its annual list of the "best-performing" CEOs in the world—and there's a whole lot of familiar names for biotech, life sciences, and pharma junkies. To compile the list, Harvard focused on tangible metrics such as long-term growth and market capitalization. Only CEOs who have served for at least two years were included in the rankings, and the Business Review considered variables such as return on shareholders' investments over the entire period of the CEOs' tenures (adjusted for both individual countries and industry-wide fluctuations) and market capitalization. As the researchers admit, this leaves out important "intangibles" such as strategic vision and employee and customer satisfaction, so the rankings are by no means perfect or definitive.
