CEO Pay Tops $18 Million as Turnover Drives Six-Year High in Sign-On Bonuses, According to Diligent29.9.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Press release
Median granted CEO pay at S&P 500 companies rose by more than 8% in 2025 to reach $18.2 million, while cash sign-on bonuses for incoming CEOs hit a six-year high, according to the Executive Compensation in 2026 report from Diligent Market Intelligence. The findings point to a more consequential compensation environment for boards: leadership talent is in shorter supply, CEO transitions are costly, and investors continue to scrutinize how pay decisions connect to performance and long-term value. The Russell 3000 also saw remuneration packages grow larger, with median granted CEO pay climbing over 2% to $7.4 million. “This level of growth has been fueled by performance-based equity and stock awards while both indices have been delivering strong total shareholder returns,” said Josh Black, Editor-in-Chief of Diligent Market Intelligence. “Boards are also increasingly viewing CEOs as a scarce global talent pool.” CEO turnover drives higher transition costs Cash sign-on bonuses for new S&P

Teams increasingly rely on AI to accelerate work—from discovery and planning to design and code. Yet most AI interactions happen in chat windows or static outputs that exist separately from the team's actual workspace. Miro's MCP server changes this by giving users a way to make the output from their AI tools visual, immediately editable, and accessible to the whole team on a shared canvas.

Gurobi Optimization, LLC, the leader in decision intelligence technology, and its partner Syntro, a provider of workforce scheduling solutions, are helping organizations like I-SEC, an international provider of airport security services, make better operational decisions in increasingly complex and highly regulated operating environments.
