Other CEOs that saw high approval ratings from employees two years in a row include Starbucks CEO Howard D. Schultz, Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd C. Blankfein and Nordstrom CEO Blake W. Nordstrom. CEOs new to this list include Chick-fil-A CEO S. Truett Cathy ranking 26th with a 90 percent approval rating, Victoria's Secret CEO Sharen Turney, the only woman on this year's report, ranking 42nd with an 82 percent approval rating, and Dell CEO Michael S. Dell who ranks 49th with an 81 percent approval rating.

As part of Glassdoor's company review survey, employees indicate whether they approve or disapprove of the way their CEO is leading the company. Rating and rank in the 50 Highest Rated CEOs list was determined using the average approval rating a CEO received between February 25, 2012 and February 24, 2013. More than half a million company reviews were submitted to Glassdoor over the past 12 months.
