Chief Executive ranks the Most Valuable CEOs using complex financial data, but what our ranking doesn’t consider is the opinions of a company’s employees

Job-seeker website Glassdoor has just released its 2012 list of highest-rated CEOs based on employee feedback. Glassdoor’s rankings are based on the question, “Do you approve of the way your CEO is leading the company?”

This list shows which companies are on board with their CEOs. The top 5: Apple’s Tim Cook, Ernst & Young’s Jim Turley, QUALCOMM’s Paul Jacobs, American Express’ Ken Chenault and Google’s Larry Page. You might be surprised who else tops the list
