TABLE OF CONTENTS THE POWER 150 | 6

Can’t find the list you want? Create your own Take a good look through this table of contents. Perhaps the Book of Lists includes every list you’re looking for. But if there’s another list you’d love to see, you have another option: Use our database to build your own list. Crain’s recently launched a new custom search tool that lets you build your own lists using filters such as company size, industry, executive title and more. You’ll find it at the top of our online Data Center (crainscleveland.com/data-lists). With that tool you can download every company on these lists and more with the push of a button. Then you can flip to an executive view and download another spreadsheet containing thousands of local C-level executives, including some with email addresses. You can also build a narrower list by searching for, say, CFOs at manufacturing companies with more than $100 million in revenue. That search tool is available exclusively to Crain’s Data Members, who also can download Excel versions of any list we publish. Including the one list that you look for in the Book of Lists every year. Now — stop reading and go flip to that list.

POWER 150 The ultimate guide to the leaders shaping Northeast Ohio

From CEOs and politicians to philanthropists and entrepreneurs, Crain’s “Power 150” list is just a snapshot of those leading some of Northeast Ohio’s most influential organizations and who are in a position to move the region forward. There were no specific criteria used in selecting the “Power 150,” nor were they chosen through a nomination process. Rather, our editorial staff collectively gathered names, taking into consideration each person’s role in Northeast Ohio and that of their organization. An effort was made to include a range of people, businesses and industries. In some instances — as was the case with Case Western Reserve University — a delayed replacement in a permanent leadership position resulted in exclusion from the list. Because many of those listed serve on multiple boards, we limited highlighted involvement to three organizations or efforts. The 2020 “Power 150” is an updated version of the 2014 “Power 150” and the 2017 “Who’s Who in Northeast Ohio” lists.

In the news: Under Abbott’s leadership, the Gund Foundation continued its commitment to education with historic gifts of $15 million to Say Yes to Education Cleveland in October 2019. When the coronavirus pandemic hit, the foundation joined a coalition of philanthropic, corporate and civic partners in launching the Greater Cleveland COVID-19 Rapid Response Fund to support nonprofits. As of Dec. 8, the fund awarded more than $10 million to over 160 organizations.

In the news: The 38-year-old signed a long-term contract extension with the Cavaliers in November 2019, marking the first time that Cavs chairman Dan Gilbert has given a general manager an extension. In the 2020 NBA draft in November, Altman selected small forward Isaac Okoro fifth overall, adding the defense-oriented wing player to the club’s rebuilding efforts.

In the news: LaunchHouse and the Cleveland Jewish News honored Anderson with the 2020 Lexus Visionary Entrepreneur Award, adding to the vast number of honors Anderson has earned since founding Anderson-DuBose nearly three decades ago. The Lordstown-based distribution company provides paper and food supplies to more than 500 McDonald’s and Chipotle restaurants in Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York and West Virginia.

In the news: Questions loomed over the Indians when the Tribe was quickly dispatched from the 2020 playoffs by the New York Yankees after a 60-game season that was shortened by the pandemic. Antonetti, who became the Tribe’s president of baseball operations in 2015, faces uncertainly around the club’s finances and the future of Francisco Lindor. The All-Star shortstop can become a free agent after the 2021 season.

CRAIG ARNOLD

KEN BABBY

MARCIA BALLINGER

Chairman and CEO, Eaton Corp.

Highlighted involvement: N/A

Highlighted involvement: Greater Cleveland Partnership, United Way of Greater Cleveland, University Hospitals

In the news: Arcuri took the helm as CEO and an American Greetings board member on March 1, 2019. The veteran of Procter & Gamble, Newell Rubbermaid and the PGA Tour leads the world’s second-largest producer of greeting cards as the Westlake-based company continues to adapt to changing consumer habits. In 2020, American Greetings announced a licensing deal with Dolly Parton for greeting cards that will sell exclusively at Walmart online and retail stores.

In the news: In the light of the killing of George Floyd in police custody in May 2020, Arnold has had a visible presence in addressing social issues.

In early June, Arnold received national media coverage for an impassioned staff letter in which he vowed to do “all in my power to foster a culture of trust and inclusion at Eaton.”

Owner and CEO, Akron RubberDucks; founder, Fast Forward Sports Group Highlighted involvement: Greater Akron Chamber, Greater Cleveland Sports Commission, Summa Health Foundation In the news: An already precarious situation with minor league baseball — with Major League Baseball cutting its minor league affiliations from 160 to 120 — became even more dire when the pandemic wiped out the entire 2020 season. Despite the “catastrophic financial event” for the industry, Babby told Crain’s he remains optimistic because “the relationship with the city and the community is really special and very personal.”

JODI BERG

MI

President, Lorain County Community College Highlighted involvement: Fund for Our Economic Future, MAGNET, Team NEO In the news: When the pandemic shut down most of Ohio’s economy during LCCC’s spring break in March 2020, the college quickly transitioned about 1,000 course offerings online. Meanwhile, its Fab Lab created more than 22,000 pieces of personal protective equipment with its 3D printer that were donated to local hospitals. Lorain County voters in April approved a 2.3 mill renewal levy for the college.

The campaign raised nearly $200,000 for 14 charities.

DR. AKRAM BOUTROS

Highlighted involvement: Conference of Minority Transportation Officials, United Way of Greater Cleveland In the news: The former chief operating officer of the Nashville public transit agency became the leader of the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority under a five-year contract in September 2019. While workers stayed home in 2020 to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, RTA saw its bus and train ridership drop 50%. The agency, which was already facing financial issues, will be impacted by declining sales tax revenues due to the pandemic.

President and CEO, The MetroHealth System Highlighted involvement: Cuyahoga Community College Foundation, Destination Cleveland,Greater Cleveland Partnership In the news: Boutros joined other Northeast Ohio health system executives in November 2020, pleading for the public’s vigilance as coronavirus cases continued to shatter records as winter approached. Meanwhile, on Dec. 1, MetroHealth announced it was receiving a $42 million gift — by far the largest in its history — from JoAnn and Bob Glick to support programs that aim to reverse health inequities and improve community health in Greater Cleveland. Separately, MetroHealth said days earlier it would invest $42 million to expand its Cleveland Heights Medical Center.

In the news: When Berg saw the coronavirus emerge at the beginning of 2020, she saw it as a threat to her global supply chain and the safety of her workers.

Highlighted involvement: Cuyahoga County Planning Commission In the news: When Brown took the helm in 2018, she became the first African American and woman to lead the county Democratic party. She has represented Cuyahoga County Council District 9 since 2014. Before that, she served three years on Warrensville Heights City Council.

Chairwoman, Cuyahoga County Democratic Party; representative, District 9, Cuyahoga County Council

In the news: After conducting his “Dignity of Work” listening tour in 2019 to assess a potential presidential campaign, Brown eventually threw his support behind Joe Biden. In an April 2020 statement, Brown said, “Dignity of Work isn’t a slogan – it’s who we are, and how we govern; Joe Biden understands that.” The senior senator from Ohio, who lives in Cleveland, is serving his third six-year term in the Senate and remains the only Democratic elected statewide official in Ohio currently.

SHONTEL BROWN

Chairman, president and CEO, Medical Mutual of Ohio Highlighted involvement: Cuyahoga Community College Foundation, Greater Cleveland Partnership, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

In the news: Byrnes, a fixture on boards throughout Northeast Ohio, was only the second woman honored as the Sales & Marketing Executives Cleveland Business Executive of the Year, which she received in 2020. “I’m old enough in this world and in this career that I have been ‘the only’ in many ways,” Byrnes explained to WKYC Studio about the recognition. “There’s more that has to happen to open doors to get women into senior leadership. Personally, I just went for it and didn’t let the fact that I was ‘the only’ in a room hold me back.”

In the news: In 2020, health insurer Medical Mutual bolstered its wellness offerings with the acquisition of Bravo in a deal in which the Cleveland-based provider of employee well-being services with more than 1 million users worldwide became a wholly owned subsidiary of Medical Mutual.

Corlett and the center are advocates for those who may not have a voice, employing a variety of efforts, including a recent webinar to examine poverty in the LGBTQ community during COVID-19. Given the toll of the pandemic on nursing home residents, the center and Corlett in December 2020 advocated for the expansion of the McGregor PACE program.

In the news: Davey Tree, long employee-owned, became a member of Certified Employee-Owned (Certified EO), a national certification program for employee-owned companies with a membership that includes over 175 companies and more than 120,000 employee-owners. With more than 10,500 employees across North America, Davey is the ninth-largest employee-owned company in the U.S., according to a report from the National Center for Employee Ownership. Earlier in 2020, it began an expansion project at its Kent headquarter that will take about 18 months and cost $14 million and $16 million to double the size of its space.

President and CEO, Summa Health

President, Kent State University

Highlighted involvement: Akron Area YMCA, Greater Akron Chamber, United Way of Summit & Medina

In the news: Beaumont Health in late May 2020 ended its plan to partner with Summa, nearly a year after the two announced they were working together to bring Summa into the Michigan-based Beaumont system as a wholly owned subsidiary. Deveny said he was “disappointed” that Beaumont walked away from the partnership after all of the work that has been done to plan integration, gain approvals and work together. Summa continued to expand with outpatient services, including its ambulatory center at NEOMED (Northeast Ohio Medical University) in Rootstown and a new Stow-Kent ambulatory center.

In the news: The pandemic scrambled university finances, but Diacon earned praise from the Kent State board for his “outstanding, steady leadership in a time of great challenge and uncertainty.” The university’s 2020 fiscal year efficiency report noted Kent State, through various cost-cutting measures, achieved more than $31 million in savings — $6 million higher than first estimated. Diacon announced in September 2020 that more than 93% of staff who experienced a pay cut would have their salaries restored by Oct. 1.

President, Fund for Our Economic Future

Highlighted involvement: County Commissioners Association of Ohio, Cuyahoga Land Bank, Northeast Ohio Areawide Coordinating Agency

Highlighted involvement: Cuyahoga Community College Board of Visitors, Team NEO

In the news: Budish was elected to serve his second term as county executive in 2018. During the COVID crisis in 2020, Cuyahoga County oversaw the distribution of $215 million in federal coronavirus aid. In 2019, law enforcement raided the county administrative offices as part of a larger investigation into corruption around the management of the Cuyahoga County Jail. The pandemic has delayed trials until 2021. Budish, who has not been charged, called the raid “a political attack.”

JOE CIMPERMAN

In the news: Burke became the second leader of the funding collaborative in March 2020 after Brad Whitehead, who led the organization for 16 years, announced in November 2019 he was stepping aside.

In the news: In April 2020, Global Cleveland received a $35,000 grant from the Greater Cleveland COVID-19 Rapid Response Fund coalition in its second week of grants to support Northeast Ohio’s nonprofits during the coronavirus pandemic. The funds allowed Global Cleveland to continue to translate state and local information to raise awareness of critical resources in nearly 20 different languages for Northeast Ohio’s international community. Cimperman, a former Cleveland city councilman, has helmed the economic development organization, which aims to attract and welcome people across the world to Cleveland, since 2016.

In the news: Cole joined Plexus as its first executive director in March 2019. The organization is a strategic partner in the economic development of Northeast Ohio and serves as a point of connection for corporations, supporters, LGBTQ businesses and professionals. To that end, Plexus and the LGBT Community Center are gathering data about the community’s demographics and needs to help Daniel Budish and Betsy Figgie, who agreed to buy the Phantasy Entertainment Complex in Lakewood and hope to turn it into social and entrepreneurial nexus for the region’s LGBTQ + communities.

MICHAEL CRAWFORD

FRED CUMMINGS

Chairman, president and CEO, Hall of Fame Resort & Entertainment Co. Highlighted involvement: Texas Roadhouse In the news: The former Disney and Four Seasons executive overseeing the $900 million Hall of Fame Village project took an important step with a July 2020 merger with Gordon Pointe Acquisition Corp. that created Hall of Fame Resort & Entertainment Co., whose common stock and warrants are being traded on the Nasdaq exchange. The company in December 2020 entered an agreement arranged by an affiliate of Aquarian Holdings for a $40 million loan it will use to repay the balance of an existing bridge loan. The company signed partnerships with companies like Shula’s Restaurant Group, Sports Illustrated Studios, Topgolf and Republic Services.

JILL DIETRICH

JOE DIROCCO Executive director, VA Northeast Ohio Healthcare System Highlighted involvement: American Red Cross Northern Ohio Region

PAUL DOLAN

DIANE DOWNING Owner, chairman and CEO, Cleveland Indians

Executive director, Say Yes Cleveland

Highlighted involvement: Cuyahoga Community College Foundation, Greater Cleveland Partnership, Team NEO

Highlighted involvement: Cleveland Clinic, Greater Cleveland Partnership, United Way of Greater Cleveland

Highlighted involvement: Cleveland City Planning Commission, Cuyahoga County Convention Facilities Development Corp., Laurel School

In the news: Dietrich in late-September 2019 started the job, where she oversees the delivery of health care to more than 112,000 veterans, with an operating budget of more than $1.1 billion and 18 locations of care. The Cleveland VA in the spring 2020 opened a comprehensive women’s clinic by expanding an old building. In November 2020, Dietrich was among the heads of six Northeast Ohio hospital systems who took out a full page ad in The Plain Dealer for a letter that implores Ohioans not to give in to “COVID fatigue” as coronavirus cases in Ohio continued to dramatically rise.

In the news: DiRocco was promoted to the president role in September. Those changes were prompted by Fifth Third Northwest Ohio president Bob LaClair’s coming retirement at the end of the 2020. DiRocco’s coverage as Northern Ohio president encompasses Akron-Canton through Cleveland and Toledo and their surrounding cities. In early December, Fifth Third Bank, National Association announced a $2.8 billion commitment that will provide $2.2 billion in lending, $500 million in investments, $60 million in financial accessibility and $40 million in philanthropy as part of its Executive Diversity Leadership Council’s Accelerating Racial Equality, Equity and Inclusion initiative.

In the news: The Indians once again made the playoffs in 2020, but they once again had an early exit. The pandemic-shortened season without fans created financial pressures for all teams, but particularly those, like the Indians, in smaller markets. Those challenges create pressure f to maximize the trade value of their best player, shortstop Francisco Lindor, as the team is unlikely to be able to match the hefty price he will command as a free agent. On Dec. 14, 2020, Dolan announced the organization would “begin the process of changing its name Indians and move forward to determine a new name.”

VIRGINIA C. DROSOS

JOSE FELICIANO SR.

WILLIAM FRIEDMAN

CEO, Signet Jewelers

In the news: Shares of Signet Jewelers in early December 2020 surged to near a two-year high after the jewelry retailer reported a surprise fiscal third-quarter profit and revenue that rose above forecasts. Store closings during the pandemic accelerated the company’s digital transformation, and those digital sales on average have had higher transaction values. As the pandemic shakes out the retail world, Signet announced it will permanently close 380 stores by the end of its fiscal year.

HIROYUKI FUJITA

GREG GEIS

Founder and CEO, Quality Electrodynamics Highlighted involvement: Cleveland Foundation, Greater Cleveland Partnership, Musical Arts Association (Cleveland Orchestra) In the news: QED, a company that makes coils that go inside magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines, in 2019 sold a 70% stake in the company to Tokyo-based tech giant Canon Inc. Fujita not only runs QED and is chief technology officer for Canon Medical Systems’ MRI Division, he serves as adjunct full professor of physics and other disciplines at Case Western Reserve University. In 2018, Fujita was appointed as Honorary Consul of Japan in Cleveland by the Embassy of Japan and the U.S. Department of State.

LOURENCO GONCALVES

Owner, Geis Cos. Highlighted involvement: N/A

In the news: At the helm of the iron-ore producer since 2014, Goncalves in 2020 began ushering Cliffs in a new direction: steel. In March, Cliffs acquired flat-rolled carbon, stainless and electrical steel product maker AK Steel Holding Corp. Six months later, it announced plans to acquire ArcelorMittal USA LLC and its subsidiaries in a $1.4 billion deal that closed on Dec. 9. That deal makes Cliffs the largest producer of flat-rolled steel in North America.

BR

Highlighted involvement: Committee on House Administration, Committee on Agriculture and Committee on Education and Labor

In the news: The Port Authority saw a 10% increase in business, both in imports and exports, early in 2020 before the pandemic, despite a dramatic slowdown in trans-Atlantic imports because of tariffs. But on another front, Friedman and other supporters of the Icebreaker project, a proposed six-turbine windfarm in Lake Erie, have seen the project slowed by regulators and still left up in the air as of mid-December.

In the news: In her seat since 2009, Fudge again got the approval from voters in 2020, winning her reelection bid. She’s worked on legislation to help public schools and increase college affordability. And as millions struggle during the pandemic, she called for the Poverty Bill of Rights, which would reaffirm the right of all Americans to live a life free from poverty and its impacts. In December 2020, she emerged as President-elect Joe Biden’s pick to head the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Highlighted involvement: Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, International Children’s Games In the news: As the pandemic upended tourism and events in 2020, Gilbert kept his focus, leading Destination Cleveland to kick off the multiphase “Undefeated” marketing campaign to kick-start the hospitality industry. The Greater Cleveland Sports Commission — which was named the 2019 Sports Commission of the Year by the Sports Events & Tourism Association — kept Cleveland in the spotlight, luring back the NCAA men’s Division I basketball tournament in 2025 and the Division I Wrestling Championships in 2026. Plus, the city is set to host the 2021 NFL draft.

Highlighted involvement: Cleveland Transformation Alliance, ideastream, United Way of Greater Cleveland

In the news: Gonzalez, a Northeast Ohio native who is well-known for his football careers at Ohio State and in the NFL, is newly re-elected for his second term. Before running for Congress, Gonzalez had a career in Northern California’s tech scene and last year shepherded a group of businesspeople on a visit to Silicon Valley to highlight Northeast Ohio’s tech sector.

In the news: Gordon helped steer the district to another levy win, this time a 15-mill renewal along with a 5-mill increase. It’s imperative funding that staved off school closures and kept the Cleveland Plan on track. And the wide margin of victory came in the face of heavy-handed opposition from some prominent landlords, who balked at the increase during the pandemic-induced recession.

She has introduced a measure to reinstate the Depression-era Civilian Conservation Corps, a concept President-elect Joe Biden is said to support.

In the news: Karp kept the Manufacturing Advocacy and Growth Network (MAGNET) busy during the pandemic, working with the Ohio Manufacturing Alliance to ramp up statewide efforts to increase PPE production.

In the news: Wolstein’s known for big deals, which in recent years include his 2017 purchase, with partners, of the 200 Public Square skyscraper and his ongoing efforts to develop the east bank of the Flats, where he controls a 23-acre site that’s home to offices, a hotel, apartments, dining and a public boardwalk. “It’s creating the plan and having the vision. Each site is different. There is only one east bank at the mouth of the Cuyahoga River. After that, it’s all execution,” he told Crain’s in 2019. He’s working on plans for a third wave of development, including additional housing, at the Flats East Bank.

In the news: Since taking over Southwest in 2015, Young most often makes the news for improving service. This summer, the main campus in Middleburg Heights and Southwest’s Brunswick Emergency Rooms both received Lantern Awards from the Emergency Nurse Association. “More so than ever before, patients are taking an active role in their health care needs as well as where they receive their care,” Young said at the time.

In the news: In his 10 years leading the Cleveland Metroparks, Zimmerman has acquired thousands of acres of land, opened new parks and attractions, and built new trails — more than 40 miles of them in the last decade. Challenges in 2020 brought on by COVID, though, prompted furloughs or salary cuts cutting for 650 staff members. “Unfortunately, while our parks have remained open, many of our operations that serve as revenue sources have been significantly impacted and we have had to temporarily furlough many of our dedicated employees,” he told Patch earlier this year.

THE BIG PICTURE CROSS-INDUSTRY DATA

Here you’ll find some of the biggest, broadest lists we publish. For instance, this year’s Privately Held Companies list includes 133 businesses from all industries, and the Excel version includes even more. Likewise, our 100 Largest Northeast Ohio Employers list naturally stops at 100, but the Excel version tops out at 157. And neither is as large as our Minority-Owned Business Directory, with 185 entries. But while our lists grew this year, many of the companies on them shrank due to the coronavirus pandemic: Local employment on the top 100 list fell just 0.66% in the 12 months ending June 30, 2020, but the drops were bigger on the full Privately Held list (-2.9%) and the Manufacturing Companies list (-5.2%). — Chuck Soder

This year for the first time you’ll see savings institutions like Third Federal Savings & Loan and Ohio Savings Bank mixed in with commercial banks on our Banks list. So many locally operating thrifts have converted to commercial bank charters that it made sense to merge our old Savings Institutions list into our Banks list. Speaking of mergers, there were plenty on our Money Managers and Investment Advisers lists in 2019, which was a big year for deals nationally and locally (as you can tell from the footnotes on the lists). But some deals aren’t meant to be: Brookfield Infrastructure’s deal to buy Cincinnati Bell was in the top 10 on our Ohio Mergers & Acquisitions list in January 2020, but we dropped it because they later got outbid by Macquarie Infrastructure Partners. Look for that deal on next year’s list. — Chuck Soder

HEALTH CARE

2020 was unquestionably a challenging year for local hospitals. Luckily, many were coming off a strong 2019: Net income for the 20 largest hospitals on our Hospitals list grew by 237% that year, according to data in the full Excel version of the list. That figure falls to 61.6% when you factor out Cleveland Clinic’s main campus, which rebounded in 2019 from a huge 2018 drop. But still. This section also includes our brand new Health Care Companies list — a roundup of the largest locally based, for-profit companies in our Health Care Directory. Companies that provide care in people’s homes made a strong showing, accounting for six of the top 25 companies on the list, which is ranked by local employment. — Chuck Soder

CIVIC ENGAGEMENT The education sector has faced huge challenges adapting to life in the age of COVID-19. For instance, 22 of the 27 schools on the full digital version of our Colleges and Universities list reported local enrollment declines this fall. Many told Crain’s that COVID was at least partly to blame. Most schools on our Private and Parochial High Schools list saw declines as well, but those decreases were smaller. And many schools told Crain’s that COVID didn’t have much impact. This section also includes our Philanthropic Gifts list, which is topped by the largest gift the Cleveland Clinic has ever received: A $261 million donation from The Lord Foundation of Ohio. It was made possible by the sale of Lord Corp. of Cary, N.C., to Parker Hannifin of Mayfield Heights. — Chuck Soder  Foundations | 67-68  Colleges and Universities | 69-70  Largest Philanthropic Gifts of 2019 | 71-73  Private and Parochial Schools | 74-75

Researched by Chuck Soder: csoder@crain.com | Information is supplied by the schools. NOTES: 1. Oberlin's fall enrollment was impacted by the college's switch from two semesters to three. The switch was made to limit the spread of COVID-19 by reducing the number of students on campus. 2. $22,620 for the College of Pharmacy; $583 per credit hour for the College of Graduate Studies 3. This figure excludes many dual enrollment high school students who did not start classes until after Hiram calculated its official enrollment figure due to the coronavirus pandemic. With those students, Hiram’s 2020 enrollment would have been roughly flat year over year.

REAL ESTATE  Commercial Contractors | 77  Conference Centers | 78  Largest Commercial Property Sales of 2019 | 79-80  Largest Home Sales of 2019 | 81-82  Wealthiest Suburbs | 83-84

People below a certain age might use a word like “baller” to describe the residence at the top of our Largest Home Sales of 2019 list. It would be appropriate: Former Cleveland Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue used to rent the place from Wael Barsoum, the former CEO of Cleveland Clinic Florida. The lakeside Bay Village home includes a tennis court, a fitness center, a spa and a theater. Bay is one of five towns with at least 10,000 residents to break the top 20 on our Wealthiest Suburbs list. None made the top five, which is dominated by small communities located right next to each other along Interstate 271. But larger cities can take solace in the fact that they dominate our Commercial Property Sales list, which is topped by the $134 million sale of Goodyear’s headquarters in Akron. — Chuck Soder

PROFESSIONAL SERVICES Our Law Firms list for years has been topped by two firms: Jones Day and BakerHostetler. But in recent years, the number of local attorneys they employ has shrunk, especially at Jones Day. Meanwhile, two regional firms, Benesch and Tucker Ellis, have been steadily moving up the ranks. Benesch is now No. 3 with 146 local attorneys, just 14 behind Baker, and Tucker Ellis is No. 4. The No. 1 company on our Accounting Firms list, however, is tightening its grip on the top spot. Ernst & Young employed 385 local CPAs as of Sept. 1, 2020, up 10% from 2019. And that’s on top of significant growth in previous years. Granted, most firms on that list have added CPAs in recent years. Our Engineering Firms list has seen strong growth, too. Firms on the full digital list employed 1,661 local engineers as of Jan. 1, 2020, up 7.4% in 12 months. That figure is up 25.8% since 2014. — Chuck Soder

The Book of Lists is packed with information about companies, but this year we decided to spend a few more pages on the people behind them. Thus, we added a “People” chapter. Our lists ranking the region’s highest-paid public company executives include, as always, many names well known in the Northeast Ohio business community. But over the next few pages, you’ll also get to know some of the young leaders already making an impact as well as a group of women who’ve made huge contributions to the region.

WOMEN OF NOTE | CLASS OF 2020 Each year, Crain’s Cleveland Business honors a group of women who have demonstrated exceptional commitment to Northeast Ohio. This year, amid the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting economic turmoil, that commitment has been more critical than ever. The members of this year’s class have risen to the occasion, displaying resilience, tenacity, compassion and grace. They have helped guide nonprofits as executives or board members, worked to keep local businesses afloat and jobs intact, fed the hungry and searched for new medical treatments. These leaders, and others like them or mentored by them or inspired by them, are who will shepherd the region to emerge from the current tumult on track toward stability and a resumption of growth, leaving no Ohioan behind.
