The Most Ideal Boss Ranking 2013

This is an annual survey conducted by Meiji Yasuda Life Insurance on students who are about to graduate and start working this spring in a bid to find out who their ideal bosses are.

Top 10 Most Ideal Male Boss
1) Ikegami Akira (Journalist)
2) Abe Hiroshi (Actor)
3) Ichiro (Baseball player)
4) Sekine Tsutomu (Comedian / Host)
5) Tadokoro George (Singer-songwriter / Comedian / Host)
6) Karasawa Toshiaki (Actor)
Sasaki Norio (Coach of Japan's National Female Soccer team)
8) Yamaguchi Tomomitsu (Comedian / Host / Singer / Actor)
9) Akashiya Sanma (Comedian / Host / Actor)
Yamanaka Shinya (Professor of Kyoto University's Center for iPS Cell Research and Application and 2012 Nobel Prize Winner for Physiology or Medicine)

This is the third year that Ikegami had won the No.1 title although he had cut back on his TV appearances over the past year. Nonetheless, whenever he appeared on news programmes, he would always be able to explain difficult news concepts to the viewers in a simple-to-understand manner thus earning him a knowledgeable image over the years. Abe keeps his No.2 spot thanks to his movies this year while Ichiro makes a comeback to this ranking for the first time in two years.

Top 10 Most Ideal Female Boss
1) Amami Yuki (Actress)
2) Esumi Makiko (Actress / Host)
3) Maya Miki (Actress)
4) Matsushima Nanako (Actress)
5) Kanno Miho (Actress)
6) Shinohara Ryoko (Actress)
7) Nakama Yukie (Actress)
8) Kichise Michiko (Actress)
Takahashi Minami (AKB48 member)
10) YOU (Actress / Singer / Model)

Amami grabs the No.1 spot for four consecutive years especially with strong support from the female survey respondents. The top 4 have actually remained the same as last year and one common trait among them is that they are seen to have leadership skills which are needed for a boss. Another surprise this year was Takahashi who shared No.8 with Kichise and she is actually the youngest person in the top 10.
