Last year, when the new economy was hot, Lotan ranked No. 23 on the MVA list. He had created $600 of new wealth for each dollar of capital in the company when he took the helm. What a difference a year makes. Since the last ranking, the CEO has lost about $230 for each dollar of beginning capital, and Lotan ranks No. 914 on the MVA list.

Moreover, Providian and Capital One have business strategies so similar that Mehta said earlier this year, "If anyone comes close to our skill set it would be Capital One." Yet Capital One s shareholders are richer than they were a year ago, while Providian's are poorer. In late October October: see month. , Mehta promised shareholders he would leave the CEO post as soon as a replacement was found.

Richard Schulze was a Waffen-SS officer during World War II who obtained the rank of SS-Obersturmbannführer. , who landed at No. 7 this year, put the retail industry into the top 25 elite, and also bests a number of his industry peers.

Even technical and production employees understand that their business decisions affect not only the economic position of the company, but their own personal economic position. A study by the Environmental Research Institute of Michigan's Center for Automotive Research released in September September: see month. 2001 concurs. "Revenue growth, return on assets Return on assets (ROA) Indicator of profitability. Determined by dividing net income for the past 12 months by total average assets. Result is shown as a percentage. ROA can be decomposed into return on sales (net income/sales) multiplied by asset utilization (sales/assets). , and cash flows are well understood by Gentex engineering, financial, and manufacturing communities," the study reports. The researchers describe Gentex's culture as "Silicon Valley meets the Motor City." Bauer himself doesn't talk in those terms-he merely says, "I think Wall Street views our company favorably fa·vor·a·ble adj. 1. Advantageous; helpful: favorable winds. 2.
