Mahindra Group chairman Anand Mahindra’s Twitter handle (@anandmahindra) was recently ranked fourth on the global list of the top 25 CEOs to follow on Twitter by the CEO Guru blog, the group said on Monday.
The chairman’s Twitter handle, which has almost 800,000 followers, was praised for being a “lively Twitter account with lots of regional flavor.” He is the only Indian to be featured on this list.
The top three executives on the list were Virgin Group chairman Richard Branson, News Corp chairman Rupert Murdoch and LinkedIn CEO Jeff Weiner. Google’s executive chairman Eric Schmidt stood at fifth.
The Mahindra chief was listed one of the Top 25 Most Powerful Businesspeople in Asia from Fortune magazine in 2011 and was appointed honorary ambassador of foreign investment promotion for Korea’s Ministry of Knowledge Economy.
