skill. I read about BBC news. I read news
about Harvard tops league table of where bosses studied.
Top 10 Universities for CEOS are Harvard, US, Tokyo,
Japan, Stanford, US, Ecole Polytechnique, France, HEC Paris, France, Ecole
Nationale d'Administration, France, Pennsylvania, US, Massachusetts Institute
of Technology, US, Keio, Japan, and Seoul National University, South Korea.
top 10 for producing business leaders does not contain all the usual names that
appear at the top of university rankings. Oxford and Cambridge are absent. It means that in this top 10 cradles of
global CEOs, there are two institutions from Paris, two from the Boston area
and two from Tokyo. Across the top
100, universities from the US dominate, followed by universities in China,
Japan, France and Germany. There are more CEOs who went to university in Asia
than in Europe.
Three of the leaders of these biggest companies went
to university in China and the head of Volkswagen went to university in
