Are the top leaders in your company (employer) more attractive physically than the average worker?

Question

I read somewhere that most leaders are taller than the average person. Of course all of you will find exceptions but I bet that the average person is more likely to be less attractive than those who are in the executive suite in the office.

I suspect that most of the leaders of the Fortune 500 and other successful companies were part of a fraternity or sorority in college and most likely big men on campus. Many were also highly popular in sports and social activites. This helped them build self confidence and drive.

What is the link between looks, popularity and success in the world of business?

Answer 1

Good looks gets you ahead in life

Answer 2

This makes sense.  I think that having the confidence to believe in yourself will help you succeed more than anything.  People that feel that they're attractive and positively reinforced will probably feel like they can do something and then they will.
