Executive Record
The commitments announced under a chief executive or division head, followed across every company they lead.
The problem
When a chief executive moves, their record stays behind. A board hiring a leader, or an investor backing one, has no sourced view of how often that person's announced dates held at their previous companies.
Why it is ignored
Company records are kept by company, not by person, and leadership changes break the thread. Recruiters and boards rely on references and narrative.
What we record
- Each commitment announced while the person led the company or division
- Leadership dates from SEC filings (Form 8-K Item 5.02 and proxy statements)
- Outcomes as on the company record, credited to the leader in office when the commitment was made
- A clear line where a commitment straddles two leaders
Sources and evidence
- SEC filings for leadership dates (grade A)
- The existing KeptIndex company records (grade A or B)
Every source is graded by fixed rules, linked, dated and fingerprinted, exactly as on the company record.
How outcomes are decided
An Executive Record is a factual summary of commitments made under a leader. It is not a judgement of the person, and a missed date often has causes outside a leader's control. Leaders can respond to their record on the same terms as companies.
