Influence doesn’t always announce itself with titles or corner offices. Sometimes it’s quieter, moving people without visible force. To build this Top List, we looked beyond hierarchies and into impact. Our approach combines data with instinct – a balance between measurable visibility and the intangible pull of reputation.

We tracked digital and media mentions across social platforms

examined coverage in global and trade outlets, factored in estimated revenues, team sizes, and the industry’s own perception of each leader. Verified internal challenges, where they existed.

We added the human layer - our editorial team’s lived understanding of the industry and insights from trusted experts. The result isn’t a static ranking of power, but a living snapshot of influence – who’s driving the storytoday, and who might be rewriting it tomorrow.
