St. Louis, MO (May 15, 2024) — World Wide Technology (WWT) has been named a winner of Glassdoor's inaugural award for Best-Led Companies 2024 in the United States, ranking 25th. This award honors companies with exceptional senior leadership teams that go above and beyond to redefine the employee experience. Unlike other workplace awards, Glassdoor's awards rely on input over the past year from employees who anonymously submit a company review on Glassdoor.

"We are incredibly honored and humbled to have WWT recognized as a Best-Led Company by Glassdoor. This award is a testament to our people, who are the inspiration and growth engine of our business and culture, and our emphasis on values and building a culture that is a great place to work FOR ALL," said Jim Kavanaugh, World Wide Technology Chief Executive Officer. "Culture and truly engaged employees have never been more important as we invest in and lead this AI revolution. Our leadership team is dedicated to fostering a culture of innovation, collaboration, and trust to ensure that every individual feels empowered and valued, and this focus will continue to remain at the heart of everything that we do."

"We're continuing to see employees face challenges as they navigate the rapidly evolving nature of worklife," said Christian Sutherland-Wong, Glassdoor Chief Executive Officer. "But regardless of changes, one thing is certain; the people within an organization remain its greatest asset, and I truly believe employee wellbeing trickles down from the very top. That's why we're excited to reveal Glassdoor's inaugural list of the Best-Led Companies, showcasing those shining examples of companies where senior leadership is putting worklife and people first according to the millions of ratings and insights provided by those who really know a company – employees."

When providing a company review, employees are asked to rate several factors tied to their employment experience. These include rating sentiment around their CEO's job performance as well as around senior management, among other factors. Specifically, when rating their CEO on Glassdoor, employees are able to choose from one of three options: approve, disapprove or no opinion of the CEO. Employees are also asked to share some of the best reasons to work for the company (pros), any downsides (cons) and are encouraged to provide advice to management. Additionally, the Best-Led Companies algorithm leveraged Review Intelligenceâ„¢, a Glassdoor sentiment analysis tool that reads, analyzes, and categorizes reviews to surface topics, insights, and trends to score company reviews that mention "senior leadership" topics. 

Glassdoor award winners for the Best-Led Companies 2024 are determined using Glassdoor's proprietary awards algorithm, and each leadership approval rating was determined based on the quantity, quality and consistency of Glassdoor-approved company reviews submitted by U.S.-based employees between March 1, 2023 and February 29, 2024. During the year-long eligibility period, companies considered for the list must have more than 1,000 employees and receive at least 100 ratings across the two leadership attributes (CEO job performance and senior management).
