Venterra Realty CEO John Foresi Named a Glassdoor Top CEO in 2018


HOUSTON, June 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Venterra Realty CEO John Foresi has won a Glassdoor Employees’ Choice Award honoring the Top CEOs in 2018 in the U.S. SMB category. Glassdoor, one of the world’s largest job and recruiting sites, released its annual report recognizing the Top CEOs, which highlights top leaders employees love working for at Small & Medium Companies in the U.S.

Among chief executives recognized by employees in the U.S., Foresi received an impressive approval rating based on the anonymous and voluntary reviews Venterra Realty employees shared on Glassdoor throughout the past year.

“It is an honor to receive a Glassdoor Top CEO Award and I am grateful to be recognized and trusted by our amazing team members.  While this is an individual recognition, it is truly the unique culture and values of the Venterra team that have given rise to this award and I am excited to be a part of the team.  I would also like to thank and recognize all Venterra team members whose commitment to excellence and quality motivate me to always work hard and stay humble,” said winning company CEO.

“Winning a Glassdoor Top CEO award is a true acknowledgement of exceptional leadership, as it reflects the opinions of the employees who work with a chief executive every day. I congratulate all of this year’s winners on this significant achievement,” said Robert Hohman, Glassdoor co-founder and CEO. “It can be a real recruiting advantage to have a top-rated CEO at the helm of a company who has strong support from his or her employees. The best CEOs are inspiring, trustworthy, innovative and can be great motivators for people to bring their best selves to work.”  

When employees submit reviews about their company on Glassdoor, they are asked to rate various factors about their employment experience, including their overall satisfaction and other workplace attributes like senior management. As part of these ratings, employees are also asked to rate whether they approve, disapprove or are neutral about the job their CEO is doing.

Among the 770,000 companies reviewed on Glassdoor, the average CEO approval rating is 69 percent.
