Well, John Glen may not be in the top 10%, but at least he’s not in the bottom 10% either. With a rank of 610 out of nearly 2,000 directors, he’s comfortably in the middle of the pack. And hey, being on the B-List isn’t so bad either. It’s like being the second-best option at a buffet – still pretty good!
