It's tough at the top, but for 19 leaders it's about to get a lot tougher, as Fortune has given them the dubious honor of declaring them the world's most disappointing leaders.
The magazine, famous for its Fortune 500 list of America's biggest companies, has chosen to give special booby prizes to a range of political and business bosses who've spent 'the past year or so' experiencing a hail of negative press.
Among their numbers are New Jersey Governor and Donald Trump cheerleader Chris Christie; hated businessman Marin Shkreli; and troubled Yahoo! CEO Marissa Mayer.

About face: Chris Christie was included in Fortune's list of the worst leaders for his change of heart regarding Donald Trump, that saw him denigrating the tycoon to becoming one of his biggest supporters

Each of the winners - or should that be losers? - has been awarded a 'prize' by the magazine, but not the kind they would want to put on the mantelpiece.
Christie made the cut for his surprise support of Donald Trump this year, after previously saying of The Donald 'We do not need reality TV in the Oval Office right now' when he was running for president himself.
He changed his tune pretty sharply once he dropped out of the race and saw Trump taking the lead, saying of the tycoon, 'here is none who is better prepared to provide America with the strong leadership that it needs both at home and around the world.'
That's why Fortune gave him the 'Prize for the Most Breathtakingly Craven Political Move of the Year' - although perhaps he deserves a little slack after the drubbing he received at the hands of Twitter parodists after supporting Trump at a Florida rally.

Trapped: Christie's backing for Trump earned him Fortune's 'Prize for Most Breathtakingly Craven Political Move of the Year.' His trapped expression at this rally was turned into a parodic meme on the web
Martin Shkreli, founder and former CEO of Turing Pharmaceuticals, earned his very own 'Shkreli Prize' with his spectacular under-performance - the magazine pointing out his self-declared 'genius' before listing his failures.
'He’s so brilliant,' Fortune wrote, 'that he hatched a strategy to buy cheap drugs, sell them at astronomical mark-ups, proudly embrace a role as the Snidely Whiplash of pharmaceuticals, attract searing national scrutiny to the entire industry and, oh yeah, get himself indicted (he has proclaimed his innocence), and lose his job.
'It’s all part of his master plan. Only a moron could fail to grasp that.'
Embattled Yahoo! CEO Marissa Mayer, meanwhile, received the 'I Lost My Strategy Under the Sofa, Special Citation' for her failure to restore the stumbling web pioneer over the past four years.
Highlighting 'just one of many examples' of her 'fiascos,' they pointed out that she had shut down many of the 'magazines' that she had originally announced as linchpins of her plan to bring the company back into the black.
Indicted: Shkreli was arrested on federal charges of securities fraud and conspiracy, and ultimately lost his position as CEO of of Turing Pharmaceuticals
The magazine added: 'She has alternated between resisting and embracing shareholder activists and zigzagged on whether she should spin off Yahoo’s valuable stake in Alibaba or spin off the bulk of the company’s businesses and leave Yahoo as largely a holding company for the Alibaba stake.'
And Sepp Blatter and Michel Platini, former FIFA chiefs, received the '"We Are Shocked - Shocked! - To Discover Payoffs" Award' after the pair were banned from the sport for eight years by FIFA's ethics committee, after they oversaw a period of 'epic' scandal.
Nine senior soccer officials and 16 others were indicted for money laundering and racketeering on their watch, and while both protest their innocence, Fortune points out, 'neither has been able to provide a written contract for the $2 million paid to Platini by FIFA in 2011 (for services rendered a decade earlier, according to the pair).'
These five are just the tip of the fatberg, of course - detailed explanations of the other 'winners' and their awards are over on the Fortune site.
