The Top 100 Filipinos on LinkedIn initiative is not a competition

It is a Recognition. A Celebration. And most importantly, a Community.

Don’t aspire to be one of the Top 100 Filipinos on LinkedIn. Instead, Aspire to inspire, motivate and help fellow Filipinos become more successful in their careers, businesses and even personal lives through LinkedIn.

Rigorous Selection Process: Ensuring Quality and Quantity

The selection process for the Top 100 is meticulously designed to ensure that the awardees truly represent the best of the Filipino professional community. A combination of quantitative and qualitative factors is considered, ensuring a balanced assessment of both reach and impact.

Overall Score = Average of (Follower Count Rank + Most Engaging Post Rank + Most Inspiring post Rank + Leadership post Rank + Mentorship post Rank + Socially Responsible Rank ) The nominee who gets the lowest overall score will be the Top 01.

Follower Ranking = Ranked based on number of followers. The highest number of followers gets a ranking score of 1 and the lowest 100++

Post Ranking = Ranked based on the engagement rate. The highest engagement rate gets a ranking score of 1, and the lowest gets 100++

Engagement rate = [(Likes + comments + reposts)/impressions] x 100.

*** Unvalidated responses due to screenshots not showing the numbers like impressions are rated ZERO

*** Unvalidated responses due to broken links or links that are not from the nominee’s profile are rated ZERO

*** In case of a tie in the final score, the nominee who has the higher number of followers gets the higher rank.

*** Some nominees will be disqualified if the declaration of numbers upon validation has extremely high variance: (examples: (1) the actual follower count is 789, but the nominee declares 1000 – this nominee will be disqualified for intentional misdeclaration of numbers (2) the nominee declares  500 but the actual count is 567 – we will consider this valid since there are possible growth in number of followers from the time the nominee fills out the form and the validation period. Nomination period is 3months.

Auditing and Certification: Ensuring Data Integrity

In a commitment to transparency and data integrity, the selection process is subject to a rigorous auditing and certification process. A certified public accountant (CPA), Ms. Evangeline Tapayan, independently reviews the data used for the selection, ensuring accuracy, and preventing any potential errors or misrepresentations.

This commitment to data integrity reinforces the credibility of the Top 100 initiative and instills confidence in the selection process, ensuring that the recognition is truly based on merit and reflects the genuine contributions of the awardees.
