Lenovo Named One of the World's Most Reputable Companies, According to The Global RepTrak™ 100

Lenovo announced today that it has been named one of “The World’s Most Reputable Companies,” according to the Reputation Institute’s 2011 Global RepTrak™ 100, a consumer study that assesses the reputations of the world’s most prominent companies.

“Our long-term mission at Lenovo is to be one of the most well-respected and trusted personal technology companies in the world, and this recognition is a milestone for us in that journey," said Yang Yuanqing, chief executive officer, Lenovo. “We work tirelessly each day to deliver innovative products, serve our customers and partners and build a strong global culture of commitment and ownership. Our inclusion on the list of ‘The World’s Most Reputable Companies’ demonstrates that our commitment to these areas resonates with key constituents worldwide, and we will continue to build on this momentum.”

This recognition comes on the heels of Lenovo’s rapid global business growth. The company is the fastest growing of the top five PC manufacturers worldwide for the sixth quarter in a row. In addition, for the eighth quarter in a row, Lenovo’s growth exceeded the worldwide PC market as a whole. During the company’s fourth quarter ending in March 2011, Lenovo’s worldwide shipments increased 16 percent year-over-year, and for the first time, Lenovo surpassed $21 billion in annual revenue. This momentum is a result of Lenovo’s “protect & attack” strategy which focuses on maintaining a stronghold in China while aggressively building brand awareness and presence in new and emerging markets.

The Global RepTrak™ assesses the reputations of the world’s largest and most viable companies by surveying 47,000 consumers across 15 markets. The RepTrak™ model measures the health of a company's reputation across stakeholders, countries and industries, as well as seven key driver dimensions: products and services, innovation, workplace, governance, citizenship, leadership and performance.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
