Johnson Controls named to best-managed list

Johnson Controls ranks among the best-run companies in the United States, according to this year’s Drucker Institute’s Management Top 250.

The list, recently published in the Wall Street Journal, places Johnson Controls 88th in the annual ranking. The company received its highest marks in social responsibility, getting 5 stars for its performance in this area. It also received 4 stars in customer satisfaction and innovation.

“We’re thrilled to be included in such an important listing of premier, innovative companies, many of whom are our customers,” said George Oliver, Johnson Controls Chairman and CEO. “It’s a phenomenal reflection on our employees’ commitment to doing right by doing good and our focus on excellence in all that we do. This esteemed recognition is testament to the hard work of every employee around the globe and an indication of what we can achieve when we work as One Team on common strategic goals.”

The Management Top 250 ranking, developed by the Drucker Institute, measures corporate effectiveness by examining performance in five areas: customer satisfaction, employee engagement and development, innovation, social responsibility and financial strength. The ranking is based on an analysis of 33 data inputs provided by 14 third-party sources.

Microsoft was the top company on the 2020 list, followed by Apple, IBM, Amazon and Alphabet.
