JLL in World’s Most Admired Companies list


Source : Business Times - 14 Mar 2009


JONES Lang LaSalle has, for the second year running, been included in Fortune’s ‘World’s Most Admired Companies’ list - basically a report card on corporate reputations.
The firm has again been recognised as a real estate industry leader based on criteria that include corporate social responsibility, service quality and global effectiveness.
JLL chief executive officer and president Colin Dyer said it is a honour for the group to be recognised for responsible corporate citizenship and client services, among other things.
Fortune said its survey partners at management consulting firm Hay Group started with some 1,400 companies, including those on the Fortune 1,000 list (comprising the 1,000 largest US companies ranked by revenue), non-US companies in Fortune’s Global 500 database with revenue of US$10 billion or more and the top foreign companies operating in the US.
They then sorted the companies by industry and selected the 15 largest for each international industry and the 10 largest for each US industry.
The survey covers 64 industries - 25 international industries and 39 primarily US-market industries. To create the 64 industry lists, Hay Group asked executives, directors, and analysts to rate companies in their own industry on nine criteria, from investment value to corporate social responsibility. To be listed, a company’s score must rank in the top half of its industry survey.
