[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s more like:

To make it to the top is 20% what you accomplished, 40% playing the game, and 20% luck, 20% personal appearance.[/quote]

Personal appearance in the corporate world has little to do with natural looks. It's more that they're tidy and put together in a corporate way, not naturally attractive or beautiful.[/quote]

Yeah there are a ton of short men in C suite. [/quote]

Short man energy is a thing. It’s why so many actors are actually short: the charisma and attitude propel them forward.

But I digress. Yes, so many short men in c-suite jobs, big law, doctors, etc.

But I also know a lot of tall, tan, fit golfers in big careers (mostly accounting/numbers or consulting) who seemingly manage the relationships rather than the heavy work. [/quote]

There are more such tall, tan, etc. people in lower level jobs, proving the point that those characteristics are largely irrelevant to professional success.  [/quote]
