Based on data from the SEC for 60,000 directors or high-level employees, Toby Segaran created this graphical network of major US companies that share board members or CEOs. A bit like a social network graph for companies.
Besides the relationship between the companies the diagram also visualizes the size of the organizations, location (East-West), gender of the persons and hierarchy level (CEO).
The data is available at the open database project Freebase if you want to play around with it yourself.
