Company Websites
The best place to find current information about the executives and other key people who work at a particular company is usually the company's own website. Look for a section entitled "About the company" or "Leadership," etc. Leadership information may also be found in a company's annual report, which you may be able to find in the area of the company's website that contains information for investors.
