“Bad companies are destroyed by crisis;
Good companies survive them;
Great companies are improved by them.”
— Andy Grove
三年前，财富杂志（Fortune）与管理咨询公司BCG合作推出了 Fortune 50（世界50强公司名单）。
今年（2020）的世界50强公司 Top 10是：
- ServiceNow
- Veera Systems
- Atlassian
- Workday
- Splunk
- Adyen
- MercadoLibre
- DexCom
- Square
- Spotify
是不是觉得自己眼睛出问题了？
这十大最有潜力的公司你听说过几个？我只知道 Workday 和 Spotify.
这个排名的算法不详，Fortune只公布了几个指标参数：
- Revenue (past 12 months) 过去一年的营收总额
- Profit (past 12 months) 过去一年的利润总额
- Market value as of Nov 2020 截止今年11月的市值
- Employees 员工人数
- Fortune 500 rank 财富500强排名
- Global 500 rank 全球500强排名
- World’s most admired companies rank 世界最受尊敬公司排名
- Best companies rank 最佳公司排名
- Fastest growing companies rank 成长最快公司排名
一个有趣的现象是，今年的财富50强公司中只有八家公司是世界500强（Fortune 500）：
| Company | Fortune 50 Rank 世界50强排名 | Fortune 500 Rank 世界500强排名 |
| Tesla | 18 | 124 |
| Nvidia | 22 | 292 |
| Salesforce | 25 | 190 |
| Adobe | 29 | 285 |
| PayPal | 34 | 182 |
| Amazon | 37 | 2 |
| International Exchange | 39 | 459 |
| 50 | 46 |
今年的世界50强中，有9家中国公司：
No. 12 – Wuxi AppTec 药明康德
No. 14 – Haidilao International Holding 海底捞
No. 19 – Xiaomi 小米
No. 21 – Shenzhen Mindray Biomedical Electronics 迈瑞医疗

COVID-19全方位改变了世界和整个人类，不仅表现在人们的生活方式，更体现在世界经济发展的各个方面。
传统大企业如何像小企业和高新企业一样更快调整和适应新形势必将成为决定未来二十年继续发展的关键。
“Good is the enemy of great. And that is one of the key reasons why we have so little that becomes great. We don’t have great schools, principally because we have good schools. We don’t have great government, principally because we have good government. Few people attain great lives, in large part because it is just so easy to settle for a good life.”
― Jim Collins, Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap… and Others Don’t
