Ivo Welch, Yale/SOM: Executive Turnover Data Base

http://welch.econ.brown.edu/academics/execchg/

These pages allow access to a directory that contains a data base of executive changes in the top 100 companies listed in the 1982 Fortune 500. The data includes personal backgrounds on individual executives, and individual promotions. It took 3 years to build this data base.

The data base is copyrighted by Ivo Welch, (C) 1997.

  1. The purpose of making the data publicly available is to allow it to be used for instructional, academic purposes in a university environment. I hereby grant teachers permission to use this data in classroom assignments.
  2. Individual researchers in not-for-profit institutions are permitted to look up individual turnovers for research purposes, as long as the number of managerial records used stays below 20. Please cite the use of the data in your references. (However, please note that you do not have permission to write a paper based primarily on the data obtained from this data base. I have spent a lot of effort, time, and money to collect the data with the goal of doing research on it. I just have not yet gotten around to it.)
