FAQ

  • Is participation in the CEO Rankings open to any CEO?

    All CEOs, regardless of their location, size, type, or industry, are eligible, provided they do not engage in prohibited activities. This includes any illegal acts in their own countries, in the country where the CEO Rankings are registered, or internationally.

  • How do I nominate a CEO?

    Please submit nominations using the form on the Nominate page. After submission, you will receive a URL to track your nomination status.

  • What occurs after I submit a nomination?

    The CEO Rankings team reviews nominations within 48 hours, though it may take slightly longer on rare occasions. If a nominee meets our criteria, a representative from CEO Rankings will reach out via email (using an address ending in @ceorankings.com) to discuss how to activate the nomination. If a nomination is rejected, the nominee will not receive a notification, but you can still check the status using the provided URL.

  • How can I determine if an email regarding CEO Rankings is legitimate?

    Always verify the email address. Official CEO Rankings representatives will only contact you from addresses that end with "@ceorankings.com".

  • What occurs after my nomination is accepted?

    Once your nomination is accepted, you will receive an email containing your login credentials for the CEO Dashboard. This is where you can manage your nomination. The credentials will be sent by a representative from CEO Rankings to the email address you provided when submitting your nomination.

    Upon logging into the CEO Dashboard with those credentials, you will be prompted to enter specific details needed to activate your nomination. After completing this step, you will become a full member of the CEO Rankings league.

  • Can I withdraw my nomination?

    Yes, you can contact our support team at any time to request the deactivation of your nomination and removal of your name from the ‘CEO of the Year’ leaderboards.

  • Do I have to pay a fee to join the CEO Rankings league?

    Access to the CEO Rankings league is completely free; you just need to be nominated and have your nomination accepted by the CEO Rankings team.

  • What should I do if I have lost my access credentials?

    If you’ve lost your access credentials, the first step is to check your inbox for them. Use "ceorankings.com" as the search term to find emails sent from our address, which ends with that domain.

    If you are still unable to locate your access credentials, you can request new ones through this page.
