The World's Most Influential People Leaders, Executives & Workplaces
Recognizing the people leaders and executives driving the future of work, and the organizations setting new standards in leadership culture, talent development, and workplace excellence.
For over a decade, Mogul has honored the leaders shaping the future of work and human potential. Every spring we name the Top People Leaders, and every fall we name the Top Chief Officers of the year. Honorees are selected by leaders themselves. Nominations come from across our executive community, from CEOs, Chief Officers, and Heads of Departments at the 600-plus companies we serve. Each is then reviewed against a year of public record: appointments, expanded mandates, workforce and organizational decisions, shareholder disclosures, and how each leader’s company actually moved on AI and new technology adoption.

Media Sponsorship
Sponsor the conversations leaders follow.
Two content programs reach the chief officers and people leaders in our community: the Chief Officer Podcast and the Mogul Awards. Sponsors appear wherever that content does: in the content itself, across our platform, in the emails that carry it, and on social.
Past sponsors include L’Oréal, CBS, IBM and Spectrum. The awards stay editorial: sponsorship never influences who is honored.
