Asia Business Leaders Awards

Asia Business Leaders Awards (ABLA): Judging

The Selection Process

Selecting the award winners from a list of accomplished business leaders becomes more challenging especially after 10 years of year on year analysis. Under stringent, objective and transparent criteria, business leaders are judged by an independent panel of world-respected management strategists, academics, corporate personalities and CNBC's executives. Heading the judging panel are representatives from CNBC's long time knowledge partner The University of Chicago Booth School of Business.

Together with research partner Development Dimensions International, the distinguished panel goes through a unique three-phase judging process, starting from quantitative company data analysis to select the top performers from across Asia, followed by face-to-face interviews to assess candidates' leadership qualities to the final phase of selecting the winners for the awards. Candidates are evaluated based on a combination of criteria including the companies' financial performance, creativity, innovation and social responsibility and their ability to create short-term advantage, long-term value and competitive edge.
