Among the chief executives recognized, Mi received an impressive
approval rating based on the anonymous and voluntary reviews that VIPKid
teachers, who offer their services on VIPKid’s platform, shared on
Glassdoor throughout the past year.
“It is a privilege to be recognized as part of this tremendous group of
highly accomplished leaders, but even more humbling to have the
appreciation from teachers. I am continuously in awe of the global
classroom we’ve built and I am energized knowing that we’re united by a
shared mission to inspire and empower every child for the future,” said
Mi.
“Glassdoor’s Top CEOs award continues to be more competitive every year,
and I congratulate each leader on their achievement,” said Christian
Sutherland-Wong, Glassdoor president and chief operating officer.

reviews on Glassdoor, reviewers are asked to rate various factors
about their experience, including their overall satisfaction and other
attributes like senior leadership. Among the approximately 900,000 CEOs
reviewed on Glassdoor, Mi ranks in the top 100 with an 87% approval
rating.
Glassdoor’s Top CEOs in 2019 were determined using company reviews
shared between May 2, 2018 and May 1, 2019. The final list is compiled
using Glassdoor’s proprietary algorithm, led by its Economic
