The Dave Alexander Center for Social Capital Announces Its Annual List of Leaders Redefining the Future of Capitalism
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - illiNews -- The Dave Alexander Center for Social Capital has released its annual list of the Top 66 People‑Centric Leaders of 2025, spotlighting the CEOs and founders proving that taking care of people is now one of the most powerful drivers of business success.
As companies confront rising burnout, disengagement and declining trust, a new generation of leaders is demonstrating that human‑centered leadership is not a "soft" philosophy — it is a competitive advantage. A 2025 report from Chief Executives for Corporate Purpose shows companies built around both profit and purpose deliver 58% higher revenue growth and 63% higher returns on invested capital, with investors overwhelmingly expecting purpose‑driven strategy.
Through hundreds of interviews with top executives, the Center has identified a clear shift: trust, connection and dignity are becoming core business infrastructure. Leaders such as Ed Bastian, Jasmine Jirele, Tony Capuano, Penny Pennington, Pete Stavros, Garry Ridge, Marshall Goldsmith and Bob Chapman, and many more, are reshaping decision‑making around people‑first principles — and outperforming the market in the process.

This movement marks a return to capitalism's original intent, rooted in Adam Smith's belief that prosperity depends on the well‑being of the entire community. After decades of short‑term, shareholder‑first practices that weakened innovation and long‑term competitiveness, people‑centric leadership is re‑emerging as the model capable of driving sustainable growth.
The Center's Top 66 honorees represent the leaders proving that when companies elevate employees, customers and communities, they unlock stronger performance, deeper trust and long‑term value. Their work signals a turning point for business — and for society.
The Dave Alexander Center for Social Capital is proud to honor these leaders and champion the movement toward a more human, more prosperous future.
