GENEVA: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is the 10th most admired personality globally, as per a new survey by the World Economic Forum (WEF) that has ranked late South African President Nelson Mandela on the top.
Mahatma Gandhi is ranked the fourth most admired personality, according to a survey of more than 1,000 millennials (generation with birth years generally ranging from the early 1980s to the early 2000s). The respondents were spread across 285 cities in 125 countries.
After Mandela, the WEF's Global Shapers Annual Survey 2015 found that Pope Francis is the second most admired leader. Others in the list are Tesla Motors' CEO Elon Musk (3rd rank), Microsoft Founder Bill Gates (5), US President Barack Obama (6th), Virgin Group Founder Richard Barson (7), Apple Founder Steve Jobs (, Nobel laureate Mohammad Yunus (9) and US investor Warren Buffett (11).
Out of the 1,084 respondents, 3 per cent voted for Modi as well as for Yunus while 20.1 per cent favoured Mandela. As many as 12.4 per cent of the respondents voted for Gandhi.
All the survey respondents are members of the WEF's Global Shapers Community aged between 20 and 30 years.
In the list of 11, three personalities are not alive - Mandela, Gandhi and Jobs.
