In many of our general counsel compensation categories, the winner just narrowly edges out the runner-up. In the case of total take-home cash, for example, The Walt Disney Co.’s Alan Braverman’s haul was not even $200,000 more than the GC in the No. 2 spot. And with base salary, the No. 1 came out on top by only $500,000.

We see a different picture when it came to stock awards. Apple Inc.’s Bruce Sewell, with his $20 million in shares, beat out the others who joined him on our 2016 General Counsel Compensation list by more than $10 million.
