Celebrating Excellence: The 100 Best-Performing CEOs in Africa for 2024

As the year draws to a close, the anticipation builds for the African CEO Magazine’s prestigious annual ranking of Africa’s Top 100 CEOs, set to be unveiled in December 2024.

This initiative not only highlights the continent’s most exceptional business leaders but also serves as a platform for discussing the evolving metrics of corporate success.

The selection process for these distinguished executives is rigorous.

It measures financial returns throughout each CEO’s entire tenure, which averages 10 years, while also integrating assessments of their companies’ environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices. This dual focus underscores a growing recognition of the importance of sustainable leadership practices in today’s business climate.

Peter SaSellu, the publisher and editor-in-chief of African CEO Magazine, explains the methodology behind the rankings. “We prioritize CEOs whose companies are publicly listed because they are held to strict regulatory standards.

This includes adherence to good corporate governance and sustainability reporting, ensuring they meet both stakeholder and shareholder expectations,” he states.

The impact of strong and visionary leadership is encapsulated by Jim Collins, renowned author of the management classic “Good to Great.”

He likens a successful company to a heavy flywheel that gains momentum as it is pushed in one direction, advocating for relentless dedication to excellence. This metaphor resonates with the ambitious goals of Africa’s top CEOs, who are navigating through challenges brought on by digital disruption, economic fluctuations, and geopolitical uncertainties.

Evelyn George, the magazine’s associate editor, emphasizes the significance of this annual ranking. “The definitive list of Who’s Who in corporate Africa reflects how these leaders address challenges while discovering new opportunities. Their resilience is vital for the continent’s growth and stability,” she asserts.

In an era where sustainable business practices are pivotal, the upcoming list of the Top 100 CEOs promises to foster important discussions on leadership, return on investment, and corporate accountability across Africa.
