Apple Tops List of 'World's Most Admired Companies' for the 15th Year [Chart]

Apple has topped Fortune's lists of the 'World's Most Admired Companies' for the fifteenth straight year.

To select the top 50, Fortune in partnership with Korn Ferry, asked 3,740 executives, directors, and securities analysts to select the 10 companies they admired most. They chose from a list made up of the companies that ranked in the top 25% in last year’s surveys, plus those that finished in the top 20% of their industry. Anyone could vote for any company in any industry.

Apple, Amazon, and Microsoft topped the rankings for 2022.


Just as it dominates our economy, Big Tech now dominates Fortune’s annual ranking of corporate reputation. For the third year in a row, Apple, Amazon, and Microsoft rank first, second, and third, respectively, based on our poll of some 3,700 corporate executives, directors, and analysts. It’s Apple’s 15th straight year in the No. 1 spot, a fitting coronation for the world’s most valuable company. As a global pandemic limped into its third year, meanwhile, companies on the front lines of the medical battle gained new respect. Pfizer, codeveloper of one of the most effective COVID-19 vaccines, vaulted all the way to No. 4, appearing on our All-Stars list for the first time in 16 years. And Danaher (No. 37), whose COVID tests and drug-development equipment are pivotal tools in the fight against the novel coronavirus, made its top 50 debut.
